Living on the Shores of Hawai'i Summary

Living on the Shores of Hawai'i: Natural Hazards, the Environment and Our Communities by Charles Fletcher

Rarely a day goes by in Hawai'i without the media reporting on environmental issues stemming from public debate. Will the proposed housing development block my access to the beach? Is the rising sea level going to cause flooding where I live? How does overfishing damage the reef? Is the water clean where I surf? Living on the Shores of Hawai'i discusses the paradox of environmental loss under a management system considered by many to be one of the most stringent in the nation. It reviews a wide range of environmental concerns in Hawai'i with an eye toward resolution by focusing on place-based management, a theme consistent with-and borrowing from-the Hawaiian ahupua'a system.
