olokai's Lohiao Paoa is among the crew members aboard Hokule`a as the sailing canoe arrived in Panama last week. After 13 days traveling between Key West, Florida, and Colon, Panama, the crew prepared for a historic crossing of the 48-mile isthmus of Panama through the Panama Canal. The waterway ends in
Balboa, and there the Hokule`a will arrive in the Pacific Ocean for the first time in almost two years in its historic Worldwide Voyage. Paoa and fellow crew members spent New Year's aboard Hokule`a. As one crew member wrote, they enjoyed a package of New Year's goodies like 2017 sunglasses, blow horns and treats like sparkling cider. "At midnight, as determined by the position of the stars, pu were sounded and

a short celebration ensued," Dr. Colleen Finnegan wrote in the crew blog. The Hokule`a is nearing the completion of its epic four-year journey that will have covered 60,000 nautical miles, 125 ports, and 27 nations. With a planned homecoming to Hawaii this June, Hokule`a will make stops in the Galapagos Islands, Rapa Nui and French Polynesia before concluding the Worldwide Voyage.

private plane with three people onboard disappeared off Molokai's Ilio Point on Dec. 30. After taking off from Ho`olehua Airport en route to Honolulu that evening, the Cessna 172 disappeared off radar around 7 p.m., four miles east of Ilio Point. The plane's pilot was Michael Childers and passengers were John Mizuno and Whitney Thomas. The Coast Guard and Fire Department began searching for the plane that night, and continued until Jan. 1 and Jan. 2, respectively, finding no debris, remains or evidence of a crash. And though official searches have been called off, dozens of family members, friends and Molokai residents have continued to search miles of coastline and ocean, not yet giving up hope of finding answers. "It's been so hard emotionally but also physically," said Minky Hoopai, Thomas' cousin who has helped organize search efforts. "Molokai has been so gracious. The support has been overwhelming... So many people have taken time off their daily work schedules to come help. That kind of love I would never find anywhere else... It's an unreal feeling I cannot describe." Hoopai said nearly 100 residents have come out to help scour the coastline by foot, search by boat, donate food and housing, and offer support in many other ways. She said off-island resources have also come to assist, such as a Honolulu aviation company volunteering to fly the area for four days straight in search of clues from the air. A GoFundMe page set up by friends with an original goal of $2,000 to assist in search efforts has now raised more than $35,000 as of Sunday. "...This is about three people who are so loved, they won't be given up on," the page states. "These are people who don't just light up a room, they illuminate our lives. We need them back home, bringing us all joy... till then we are surviving on unrelenting hope." Childers had gotten his pilot's license less than a year ago -- a dream of his, according to friends. Childers and Thomas were a couple, and Mizuno was a close friend. "The love Whitney and her boyfriend had was special and the friendship the three of them had... you couldn't ask for better friends," said Hoopai, who grew up across from Thomas' family. "Their legacy... is living life to the fullest. That was radiated to everyone. You could feel the love of these kids." Hoopai said $20,000 of the funds raised will go towards hiring a salvage company, set for later this month. She said the family has received support from companies that use sonar to create underwater images they hope will locate the wreckage and allow the salvage company to extract it. The rest of the funds are slated to help reimburse those who have helped in the search, and she suggested there may be

Why I fly with Makani Kai “It’s just easier here…no hassles with security,” says Micah. “It’s smooth and laid back.” Micah flies to Honolulu occasionally to visit with family and friends and finds in Makani Kai a bit of Molokai style, “The staff is friendly.” The guy should run for Mayor one day. After all, he knows just about everyone on the island and, after seven years on the job at Friendly Market, sees just about everybody at least once every week or two. And that smile is contagious.

enough to donate to a fund to help others in similar circumstances. Beginning Dec. 30, official responders conducted a total of 29 searches covering 1,473 square miles over a span of three days. The Coast Guard used an airplane and helicopter to search by air, along with two vessels scanning the ocean up to 17 miles off shore. Fire crews from Molokai and Maui assisted by helicopter, jet skis and by foot on land. The National Park Service also contributed to the efforts. Around the time of the plane's disappearance, winds were reported to be winds at approximately 19 mph, 4 to 6 foot seas, 3,000 foot ceiling and poor visibility. The weather conditions worsened over the next two days, with low visibility, wind and rain hampering the search at times. With no evidence found, the Coast Guard suspended its search on Jan. 1. “Our most heartfelt condolences go out to the families and friends of Michael, Whitney and John," said Lt. Nic Iannarone, Coast Guard Joint Rescue Coordination Center command duty

officer. "Suspending a search is an incredibly difficult decision to make, especially during the holiday season. Our crews along with Maui County Fire Department and the National Parks Service have completely covered the search areas on ground and sea and have found no trace of the Cessna." The Maui Fire Department persevered with its search the following day, but still found nothing. Undaunted, volunteers continued to search on foot and by boat for more than a week, with efforts still ongoing as of Sunday. "I'm always... thinking, 'If that was my child, I would only hope that people would be there for us as well,'" said Molokai resident Kawika Crivello, who has been volunteering with the search. "From all the prayers and people helping, you can truly feel the mana. In all honesty, after a few days of searching, they become like your own." Hoopai said they are still holding out hope of finding any clues. "We are looking for any track marks, any debris, anything out of the ordinary," she said. She asked that anyone with information about the disappearance or evidence to contact the local police or fire departments.

Vintage Time in Kalawao By Father Pat Killilea, St. Francis Church, Kalaupapa She hopped out of her red vintage pickup truck and, having surveyed the situation, sprang into action. Streams of water were pouring down Damien Road and out of the Baldwin Home field opposite St. Philomena Church. Unfazed by the water and the mud, she picked up some rocks and placed them behind the rear tires of the truck to help with traction as the truck had become mired in the muddy road. She had already called for help and soon Ken, our Administrator, arrived on the scene followed by Park Ranger Adam. Adam produced a rope, connected the stuck truck to his super Ram pickup and, with a mighty push from Ken and yours truly, the sunken vehicle was soon freed and rolling up the hill toward Siloama Church. Like the tried and tested veteran that she is, Meli Watanuki had overcome one more obstacle on the road of life. Meli is always in action some place. On Dec. 21 she had wielded the donation basket at the annual Lions Club dinner and at the same time entertained us with a dancing motion which could be termed
a cross between the Hula and the Watusi. I told her that she should get up onto the table so that all could see her but she declined. On consecutive Saturdays she had spearheaded the preparation and the decoration of St. Francis Church for the Christmas season and still had found time and energy to perform all the other services she does so faithfully. Now, on New Year ’s Day, she had driven out to Kalawao on a road that compares to an Irish bog road in winter to check on St. Philomena Church and to feed its resident cat, Kalawao. It had been raining heavily for two days and so there were streams of water running down the mountain cliffs, creating havoc with the gravel and dirt road. Meli, however, is quite the soldier and was even laughing at times as we worked to free her truck from the mud. Just as she does so many times for our church and for this community, she had provided a little adventure for Ken, Adam, and myself on this day, New Year ’s Day 2017. And now she was on her way to her next adventure. It had been vintage Meli. Aloha.

Students Tackle Island Issues By Larry Tool, Political Science Instructor, UH Maui College Molokai Ten Molokai High seniors completed a Maui College political science course this past fall, half of them earning higher than an A grade. The students are Kaina Adolpho, Linaka Akutagawa, Sonja Angst, Tati Badiola-Pascua, Lily Jenkins, Journey Miguel, Kurtis Ostlund, Ida Pongmulee, Precious Rawlins and Courtney Winfrey. Their families, their school and their community should be very proud of their efforts. Highlights of the semester included visits from a local activist, local political candidates, and the editor of The Molokai Dispatch. Students also followed the General Election and discussed its outcome. Halfway through, in addition to the assigned coursework, these students asked to learn how to debate and how to write legislation. They organized themselves into teams, chose topics, did research, staged formal debates, and drafted two bills. In both cases the results were quite impressive. The most important work in this class involved student projects. Each was asked to identify a public issue important to them, to research the issue, figure out how they might address or advance the issue and present their findings to the class. The list of student-selected projects was both creative and ambitious, fully comparable with the best projects of older college students. We had an analysis of the politics involved in re-opening tourist facilities at Molokai Ranch, including a sketch of changes to the corporate structure which would be needed to make that possible. We had a proposal for a sheltered drug treatment facility on Molokai, one which could at least temporarily isolate addicts from the temptations that encourage relapse. We had a
proposal for an expanded animal shelter, to accommodate more animals and reduce the number that are put down. We had a proposal to establish a day-care program at the high school, to make it easier for pregnant teens to finish their schooling. We had an exploration of government actions which could discourage single-ownership of an entire island, like Lanai. Another student drafted legislation for sunshining student rights throughout the public schools, so that students, parents and teachers will all know the rules, and so there is a clear process for appealing decisions. We had a proposal for ending discrimination against rural high schools in sports competition, so that every school can compete to the best of its ability. We had a proposal to educate the community about the dangers and stresses of police work. Another student examined alternatives to the proposed mileage tax on gasoline, and the budget impacts of each one. Finally, we had a careful analysis of the complex and intractable homeless problem, rejecting one-size-fits-all solutions, and outlining different approaches to each category of homeless. In every case, these Molokai students demonstrated a will to improve their community, a sensitivity to conflicting points of view, a concern for short and long-term costs, and creativity in the search for new approaches to public problems. Molokai is fortunate to have young people who demonstrate this level of dedication to the needs of their community. It will not be surprising if the community finds some of its future leaders within this group. It was a pleasure to work with these students. Special thanks to Dispatch editor Catherine Cluett Pactol for inviting them to share their work with the community.

County of Maui News Release
“Our girls put together a solid effort on both sides of the ball," he said. "Most importantly, our guards took care of the ball for most of the game.” On Saturday, Molokai stayed close to Lanai and was only down 8 at halftime and cut the lead to 40-34 after three quarters but the Pine Lasses had a strong fourth quarter. They outscored the Lady Farmers 15-6 to win the game 55-40 and complete a weekend sweep at The Barn. Lanai (3-3) was led by Arianna Maltezo with 17 points Kayla Garcia added 15 and Tyana Soberano-Foster had 10. Molokai (0-4) was led by Brooke Keliihoomalu with 14 points. Camille Ledesma added 10, Kaitlin DeRouin had nine and Nadia Augustiro five points. Coach Lee Derouin continues to be positive and know his team will get better. “The coaching staff is proud of the girls defensive intensity and hard work this past weekend and we look forward to continue to keep improving each day in practice and each game," he said. Yumol had some nice comments about the Farmers and Saturday’s game. “The theme for this game for us was to match or raise the intensity that the Lady Farmers were going to bring to the game and our girls stepped up to the plate," he said. "Coach Lee has a championship program and we needed to be ready. While we allowed more points than we would have liked, our offense and transition was able to make baskets. We’re starting to hit our stride but we are not quite there yet.” Both the boys' and girls' teams will host Seabury this weekend and Molokai will host this year’s MIL Girls Basketball Tournament on Jan. 26-28 at The Barn.
The County of Maui has completed a report that reviews the state of the County’s economy and sets out a locallybased, regionally driven planning strategy for economic development over the next several years. The report, called the Comprehensive Economic Development Strategy (CEDS), was released by the Mayor’s Office of Economic Development (OED), in partnership with Maui Economic Development Board (MEDB). The economic development goals and specific strategies identified by the Focus Groups and refined by the Strategy Committee are described in the CEDS report, which is available on the County of Maui’s website at mauicounty.gov/CEDS. A limited number of hard copies of the report are available from the County of Maui Mayor’s Office of Economic Development. To request a copy, call (808) 270-7710. Usually conducted every five years, CEDS is mandated by the Economic Development Administration (EDA) of the U.S. Department of Commerce. The County of Maui and the State of Hawaii are regional partners with the EDA in the CEDS planning process, which provides a vehicle for individuals, organizations, local governments, educational institutions and private industry to determine what economic development efforts can best serve the community. “One of the key purposes of the CEDS is to identify opportunities to integrate federal, state, and county funding sources with private sector
from pg. 1
resources,” commented Teena Rasmussen, OED Director. “These can then be directed toward advancing economic development goals and objectives that have been defined by community participants.” As in other municipalities across the nation, Maui County must update its CEDS every five years to qualify for EDA assistance under its Public Works and Economic Adjustment Assistance programs. CEDS is also used by other Federal agencies as well as the State and County to determine economic priorities. The CEDS process was led by a Strategy Committee drawn from business, industry, community organizations, local government, organized labor, education, utilities, public health agencies, minorities and women. As an integral part of the process, MEDB convened Focus Groups representing each of the eight identified clusters and geographical locations to gather input on economic development challenges, opportunities, and actions relevant to the formulation of the CEDS for Maui County. Recognizing the unique economies in Lanai and Molokai, the committee approached them as distinct geographical clusters in the CEDS process and convened Focus Groups on each island. A total of 115 participants contributed during this process and their input incorporated into the CEDS report. To further inform the choice of clusters, MEDB surveyed 1,473 residents at the 2015 Maui Fair to obtain their priorities among the eight clusters.

set up the game winning shot. Lanai was led by junior Arjen Uminga with 19 points and Nighel Calderon added 12 points. The Farmers were led by Kaina Adolpho and Aaron Rapanot with 15 points apiece. Alvarez added 10 points. Lanai improved to 1-2 on the season and Molokai lost its first game of the young season 2-1. Molokai first year Head Coach Bob Danner almost won his first MIL league home game and was proud of his teams' play. “[It was a] great game for the Pine Lads and the Farmers in the Barn," he said. "We played hard and just came up short in the last few seconds.” Lanai Head Coach Jimmy Fernandez has coached many games at The Barn and said he knew it would be a hard fought game. “It's always an intense and competitive game with the Farmers," he said. "They are well coached and play hard to the end.” On Saturday, the Farmers and the Pine Lads put on another show of exciting basketball, and Molokai prevailed in overtime to win 47-42. After a slow start and trailing after the first quarter 13-5, the Farmers were only down one at the half 2120. Molokai led 30-28 after the third quarter but the Pine Lads came back to tie the score at 38 to force overtime. The Farmers then outscored Lanai 9-5 in the extra period to win 47-42 and earn the split of the weekend games. Lanai (1-3) was led by John Baltero and Calderon who both had 15 points. Molokai (3-1) was led by Adolpho with 13 points. Alvarez and Michael Sterner added 10 each and Shraedon Naeole-Starkey finished with seven. “I was pleased to see us get the ball inside and trust our big men with touches," said Danner of Saturday's game. "They work so hard just to get position and rebound as well and it was nice to see our ball movement into the post.” The Farmers will host undefeated (40) Seabury this weekend in a battle for first place in the MIL DIV II Boys Basketball League and Danner is very appreciative of the support. “I'd like to thank all the Farmer Nation fans for coming out this past weekend and we are looking forward to our next game," he said. "Please come out and join us.”

Pay Property Taxes at Credit Union Maui County News Release Maui County residents can now pay their property tax bills at their local credit union, and even set up automatic payments. The agreement with the county enables Federal Credit Union (FCU) members who own homes to establish a special account at their credit union, which would be dedicated to making semi
annual real property tax payments when due. Their credit unions would withdraw the funds at the designated time and make remittance to the Maui County Finance Department on their behalf. "The automatic payments will be especially useful for homeowners who don't have a mortgage anymore and because of that, sometimes forget that they still have to pay property taxes," said
Finance Director Danny Agsalog. "This can be a serious problem resulting in monetary penalties and even foreclosures. So we very much appreciate our credit unions cooperating with the county like this, it's a good agreement for everyone." Home owners have to belong to a credit union in order to make property tax payments through the institution. The agreement includes eight Maui County
chartered FCUs on Maui and a branch of an Oahu credit union. On Molokai, they can be paid at the Molokai Community FCU. Real property tax remittances will begin with the August 2017 payment. For more information and to establish this service, please contact your respective credit union.

ARIES (March 21-April 19): In Norse mythology, Yggdrasil is a huge holy tree that links all of the nine worlds to each other. Perched on its uppermost branch is an eagle with a hawk sitting on its head. Far below, living near the roots, is a dragon. The hawk and eagle stay in touch with the dragon via Ratatoskr, a talkative squirrel that runs back and forth between the heights and the depths. Alas, Ratatoskr traffics solely in insults. That's the only kind of message the birds and the dragon ever have for each other. In accordance with the astrological omens, Aries, I suggest you act like a far more benevolent version of Ratatoskr in the coming weeks. Be a feisty communicator who roams far and wide to spread uplifting gossip and energizing news. TAURUS (April 20-May 20): You have a divine mandate to love bigger and stronger and truer than ever before. It's high time to freely give the gifts you sometimes hold back from those you care for. It's high time to take full ownership of neglected treasures so you can share them with your worthy allies. It's high time to madly cultivate the generosity of spirit that will enable you to more easily receive the blessings that can and should be yours. Be a brave, softhearted warrior of love! GEMINI (May 21-June 20): I love and respect Tinker Bell, Kermit the Frog, Shrek, Wonder Woman, SpongeBob SquarePants, Snow White, Road Runner, and Calvin and Hobbes. They have provided me with much knowledge and inspiration. Given the current astrological omens, I suspect that you, too, can benefit from cultivating your relationships with characters like them. It's also a favorable time for you to commune with the spirits of Harriet Tubman, Leonardo da Vinci, Marie Curie, or any other historical figures who inspire you. I suggest you have dreamlike conversations with your most interesting ancestors, as well. Are you still in touch with your imaginary friends from childhood? If not, renew acquaintances. CANCER (June 21-July 22): "I never wish to be easily defined," wrote Cancerian author Franz Kafka. "I'd rather float over other people’s minds as something fluid and non-perceivable; more like a transparent, paradoxically iridescent creature rather than an actual person." Do you ever have that experience? I do. I'm a Crab like you, and I think it's common among members of our tribe. For me, it feels liberating. It's a way to escape people's expectations of me and enjoy the independence of living in my fantasies. But I plan to do it a lot less in 2017, and I advise you to do the same. We should work hard at coming all the way down to earth. We will thrive by floating less and being better grounded; by being less fuzzy and more solid; by not being so inscrutable, but rather more knowable.

at their grating declarations, and yet greedy for more. I disagree with much of what they say, but feel grudgingly grateful for the novel perspectives they prod me to discover. (Nobel Prizewinner Elias Canetti is one such author.) In accordance with the current astrological rhythms, Virgo, I invite you to seek out similar influences -- for your own good! LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Now would be an excellent time to add new beauty to your home. Are there works of art or buoyant plants or curious symbols that would lift your mood? Would you consider hiring a feng shui consultant to rearrange the furniture and accessories so as to enhance the energetic flow? Can you entice visits from compelling souls whose wisdom and wit would light up the place? Tweak your imagination so it reveals tricks about how to boost your levels of domestic bliss. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): In 2017, you will have unprecedented opportunities to re-imagine, revise, and reinvent the story of your life. You'll be able to forge new understandings about your co-stars and reinterpret the meanings of crucial plot twists that happened once upon a time. Now check out these insights from author Mark Doty: "The past is not static, or ever truly complete; as we age we see from new positions, shifting angles. A therapist friend of mine likes to use the metaphor of the kind of spiral stair that winds up inside a lighthouse. As one moves up that stair, the core at the center doesn't change, but one continually sees it from another vantage point; if the past is a core of who we are, then our movement in time always brings us into a new relation to that core." SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): The Tao Te Ching is a poetically philosophical text written by a Chinese sage more than two millennia ago. Numerous authors have translated it into modern languages. I've borrowed from their work to craft a horoscope that is precisely suitable for you in the coming weeks. Here's your high-class fortune cookie oracle: Smooth your edges, untangle your knots, sweeten your openings, balance your extremes, relax your mysteries, soften your glare, forgive your doubts, love your breathing, harmonize your longings, and marvel at the sunny dust. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): I recently discovered Tree of Jesse, a painting by renowned 20th-century artist Marc Chagall. I wanted to get a copy to hang on my wall. But as I scoured the Internet, I couldn't find a single business that sells prints of it. Thankfully, I did locate an artist in Vietnam who said he could paint an exact replica. I ordered it, and was pleased with my new objet d'art. It was virtually identical to Chagall's original. I suggest you meditate on taking a metaphorically similar approach, Capricorn. Now is a time when substitutes may work as well as what they replace.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): "It is often safer to be in chains than to be free," wrote Franz Kafka. That fact is worthy of your consideration in the coming weeks, Aquarius. You can avoid all risks by remaining trapped inside the comfort that is protecting you. Or you can take a gamble on escaping, and hope that the LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Here's my declaration: "I hereby new opportunities you attract will compensate you for the forgive, completely and permanently, all motorists who have sacrifice it entails. I'm not here to tell you what to do. I simply ever irked me with their rude and bad driving. I also forgive, want you to know what the stakes are. totally and forever, all tech support people who have insulted me, stonewalled me, or given me wrong information as I sought PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): "All pleasures are in the last help from them on the phone. I furthermore forgive, utterly and analysis imaginary, and whoever has the best imagination finally, all family members and dear friends who have hurt my enjoys the most pleasure." So said 19th-century German novelist feelings." Now would be a fantastic time for you to do what I just Theodor Fontane, and now I'm passing his observation on to you. did, Leo: Drop grudges, let go of unimportant outrage, and issue Why? Because by my astrological estimates, you Pisceans will a blanket amnesty. Start with the easier stuff -- the complaints have exceptional imaginations in 2017 -- more fertile, fervent, against strangers and acquaintances -- and work your way up and freedom-loving than ever before. Therefore, your capacity to drum up pleasure will also be at an all-time high. There is a catch, to the allies you cherish. however. Your imagination, like everyone else's, is sometimes VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): There are some authors who prone to churning out superstitious fears. To take maximum both annoy me and intrigue me. Even though I feel allergic to advantage of its bliss-inducing potential, you will have to be firm the uncomfortable ideas they espouse, I'm also fascinated by about steering it in positive directions. their unique provocations. As I read their words, I'm half-irritated

Veterans Corner Rules of War
By Jesse Church Aloha my fellow veterans and residents of Molokai, old Jesse here with all the veterans news and upcoming events. Happy New Year 2017, another year rolled by, I swear the older you get, the faster time goes by. I hope that everybody has made their New Years wishes and resolutions and will be able to see them through for the entire year. Mankind has been fighting wars since the beginning of time, fighting to win, and not worrying about consequences. Nobody has ever worried about collateral damages or civilians that got in the way. Now the Pentagon has revised the rules of war in a way that would make the likes of Generals Eisenhower and Patton roll in their graves. The changes to the Law of War manual include a new section and I have read that says commanders are to weigh any potential military advantage gained by an attack against the potential for collateral damage and civilian injuries and deaths. The new manual makes it clear that subordinates should not comply with orders that are clearly illegal, such as when a commander might order an attack that could be expected to result in excessive civilian casualties or collateral damage. Have you ever heard the Pentagon tell troops should not carry out orders that are “clearly illegal?"
In my day, we were taught to obey all orders, even if there wrong. It makes me think that the Pentagon does not care about our people in uniform, and gives every advantage to our enemies. We must do everything and anything we can to not hinder our combat troops. It is our duty to them, we must not every lose that thought, to help them in every way humanly possible. They are American men, and women who have volunteered to defend the United States of America. Whoever makes all these crazy rules clearly has never been in the military and is illiterate on the workings of the U.S. military. Let the generals and admirals run the military. They are the professionals, they will do what's best for our people in uniform, and they will not give every advantage to our enemies, but to Americans. Old Jesse is one American who is damn sick and tired of Americans who know absolutely nothing about the workings of the American military setting policy for them. The military professionals who have devoted their lives to keeping the American people safe and free are the people who should be setting policy for the military. The Law of War manual was originally issued in 2015 the updated manual was issued on Dec. 13, 2016. Let us all pray for a speedy and safe return home of our troops serving in harm's way. Please remember that old Jesse loves every man, women, and child from my heart you are my family. Aloha and mahalo.

Climate Change This makes no sense. With Planet Earth rapidly changing its weather patterns on which 7.2 billion people depend for survival we see that the one country, the U.S., which is more responsible than any for these changing conditions, refuses to join the effort to fix the problem. At the very least the U.S. will loose all her allies and will soon have only enemies. A public policy that might produce those results amounts to a direct threat to the lives of its own public. Imagine that -- an elected government willfully jeopardizes the citizens who elected it. It’s a bit lopsided in that less than one percent of Americans control and direct the activities that produce the Greenhouse Gases that cause the trouble. The other 99 percent have no say in the matter. Tens of millions of people will be displaced by rising sea levels, drought, flooding and other forces. While most of the worlds’ delegations to the Marrakech Conference (COP 22) in early November were finding agreement on solutions the U.S. was performing a travesty of Democratic principles in
electing a clown as its president. Perhaps the Planet as a whole could save itself from some of the inevitable climate damage, but, if it’s done without U.S. cooperation the rest of the Planet may develop some antagonistic opinions on several issues, such as who will house the displaced millions? It may matter to some folks around the globe that U.S. corporations plus a few individuals control about 50 percent of planetary resources and wealth while the U.S. population amounts to only about 4.4 percent of world population. In terms of numbers, that’s 6,883,200,000, rather more than six and a half billion, angry foreigners. These thoughts come to mind as the sea-level rises before our eyes, even here on Molokai. I see it in the place where I get in the water for exercise, at roughly the same time, in exactly the same place every morning for the past 16 years. Ice melts, the sea-level rises -- it’s happening now. Kevin Brown
