    MĀLAMA I KA HONUA A Quarterly Journal of the SIERRA CLUB OF HAWAI‘I OCTOBER-DECEMBER 2018 This month’s issue: Celebrating 50 years of Service in Hawai‘i nei Should Hawai‘i hold a 7 Constitutional Convention? Group Reports & Outings 8 Maintaining Status Quo at 24 Red Hill General Election 26 Endorsements 2019 Executive Committee 29 Elections 50 LOOKS GOOD ON US It is with the fullest of hearts, that we send a HUGE mahalo to everyone that came together to help the Hawai‘i Chapter celebrate its 50th year in Hawai‘i nei. We first celebrated on September 8 and it certainly was an evening not to forget in the breathtaking setting of Moli‘i Gardens at the base of the Ko‘olau Mountains, surrounded by our longest serving members, biggest supporters, and life-long admirers of the Club. In between grabbing plates of ono food, bidding on outstanding silent auction items, and reminiscing about old times, guests heard inspiring speeches from special guests Michael Brune, Sierra Club National Executive Director and Kelly King, co-founder of Pacific Biodiesel as well as Colin Yost, Hawai‘i Chapter Executive Committee Chair and Marti Townsend, Hawai‘i Chapter Director. Local lawmakers, including Governor Ige, attended the event to present various proclamations and certificates honoring the Chapter’s commmitment to protecting Hawaiʻi’s environment. A special thank you to Under my Umbrella for the incredible work and support planning this event, all of the volunteers and staff that helped during the planning process, the lei makers, the day of volunteers, all of the wonderful companies, organizations, and individuals that donated items to our robust silent auction, Reese Liggett and Suzan Harada for donating and making the beautiful native plant centerpieces, Jonathan Scheuer for donating the ti for the lei, Jen Homcy for donating the gorgeous awards, Hannes Seidel from CarbonBuddy and Arsalan Barmand from Carbon Lighthouse for helping us to offset the event’s carbon emissions, and Tristan Cummins from Sustainable Coastlines for helping us reduce the event’s waste.

  • Hawaiʻi Climate Change Advocacy Advisor Developed by Hiʻilei K

CASCO Dept. of Natural Resources and Environmental Management University of Hawaiʻi at Manoa TABLE OF CONTENTS 01 02 03 PURPOSE CLIMATE CHANGE CLIMATE IN THE LEG OVERVIEW Why this resource A review of climate change An assessment and analysis was created for you indicators, impacts, and case of climate-related studies on advocacy initiatives initiatives in the 2019 in the Pacific region Hawaiʻi State Legislature 04 05 06 KEY INSIGHTS + RESOURCES + TOOLS APPENDICES STRATEGIES Sharing advocacy insights Materials to help you get Supporting data and and strategies from started: step-by-step information community members and guides, worksheets, and seasoned environmental resources advocates 2 01 PURPOSE Why this resource was created for you 3 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY WELINA MAI Welcome to the Hawaiʻi Climate Change Advocacy Advisor! Despite the importance of environmental advocacy in ensuring effective decision-making processes and outcomes, smaller community-based resource stewardship organizations in Hawaiʻi often lack the skills, tools, guidance, and capacity to organize their own advocacy plans and strategies. This lack of support has made it difficult to protect and fulfill their environmental interests through an inability to participate in policy and decision-making processes at local and state levels. There is a need to support these groups to develop their own advocacy frameworks and plans, which will ensure their ability to express their views on climate change and natural resource issues that impact them. This resource seeks to support small community-based natural resource organizations in Hawaiʻi to more effectively participate in climate change and natural resource policy and decision-making processes at local and state levels.

KOKUBUN CHAIRPERSON, BOARD OF AGRICULTURE BEFORE THE SENATE COMMITTEE ON AGRICULTURE TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 12, 2013 2:55 P.M. Room 229 SENATE BILL NO. 590 RELATING TO AGRICULTURE Chairperson Nishihara and Members of the Committee: Thank you for the opportunity to testify on Senate Bill No. 590. The Department of Agriculture supports the intent of this measure and offers comments. The purpose and intent of this measure is to clarify the State’s policy to promote and foster an atmosphere of acceptance for agricultural practices and guaranteeing the rights of farmers and ranchers to engage in farming and ranching practices. We believe the proposed language establishing the right of farmers to engage in farming and ranching practices (page 6, lines 2-6) would be more appropriately placed within Chapter 226, Hawaii Revised Statutes (Hawaii State Plan) rather than Chapter 165, the Hawaii Right- to-Farm Law which is focused on limiting the circumstances under which farming operations may be deemed to be a nuisance. Thank you, again, for the opportunity to testify on this measure. -1- COUNTY COUNCIL OFFICE OF THE COUNTY CLERK Jay Furfaro, Chair ‘.> Nadine K.
