Plans are being laid for a North Kohala Scenic Highway (Akonipule through Pololu) supported by the North Kohala Community Resource Center. A committee meets weekly and the project has been worked on for a year, yet many kama'aina and newcomers to Kohala know NOTHING of this project.



Highways cause great change. The Alii Parkway was stopped in Kona by the people because the development it would have brought along its route would have made it even more difficult to "keep" the life of… Continue

I was not a student who studies steadily and hard in school. However, I changed from the…

Amazon Paradise

 

By working in the middle of Tokyo, the message I received from Amazon jungle became stronger to me.

Those messages became more meaningful to me as time goes by.

In this one year, it finally became clear to me what the messages of Amazon really meant, and I have been thrilled.

I want to write the detailed story in Amazon here, to see the meaning of them deeper.

I wish I could reflect them to me who is in the fast moving society right…

I've heard a lot about upgrades that are being proposed around the country. From my understanding Hawaii is no different. Unfortunately, many of the PUC's around the country are making plans to upgrade the facilities with the same-ol technology... imagine that, spending millions of dollars on upgrading facilities using dated technology.

I am the VP of Sales for Dolan's Green Solutions and we offer solutions to many different areas of wastewater treatment, industrial cleaning,…
