Hawaii Land Depletion

A lot of people that claim equity in Hawaii are leaseholders. Only a small percentage are landowners. The impact of the housing market prices rooted from World War 2. That event was a major factor because people thought they were investing better by being lessors. They thought it was less risky and had a lot more value. These lessors were considered private parties instead of representation of parties. This was the opposite of Israel and Singapore.

There are specific environmental challenges against Hawaii that include sea levels rising, global warming, food and water scarcity, land depletion, high energy costs and invasive species and natural disasters that bring more invasive species and kill natural resources and local species like coral.

To manage natural resources, invasive species have to go away and stay away and we do that by keeping imports on the low side and producing locally. Making sure freshwater is available is also crucial by not wasting the water in our households, measuring rising sea levels and ocean acidification, and higher temperatures. How many cars on the road also matters so doing mass transport instead of single rider cars will reduce the amount of cars on the road and reduce the amount of fuel we use. So 7.8 billion dollars in motor gas, jet fuel, and residential fuel costs will go down. So the Aloha+ challenge of 2030 is to have 30% of our food that we consume produced locally and to decrease carbon emissions. To maintain a sustainable environment in Hawaii is crucial for the land. We as consumers have to be aware of our decisions as consumers and the affect it has on the economy. You must be calculative in the decisions you make and take responsibility for the environment as an individual. To fufill these needs we must one, develop a sustainable plan in terms of how it relates to the community and the future.
