Water
Maui’s breathtaking beauty and fragile ecological balance make for an array of pressing environmental issues—but they all come back to water. Do we have enough? Is it being properly allocated? Are we keeping it clean? From wastewater injection wells to stream flow restoration, taro farmers to golf courses and mega resorts, the water question is raised again and again in different contexts. It makes sense: our bodies, after all, are mostly made up of the stuff. We can’t live without it, and so it follows that we should protect and defend it with our lives. @jacobshafer
