The settlement, described as a “world first,” will legally require Hawaii’s transport department to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.

    I’ve been to Maui once and it blew my mind that there isn’t at least a light rail that goes from the popular beach areas to the airport. They are like 3 main roads they could follow in a loop. Tax the shit out of the tourists and get free light rail for residents. Tourists already spend $1000/week on cars/parking at resorts that just make life miserable for locals, just take that wasted money and build rail, powered by abundant sunshine/batteries. The status quo is so absurd.

      powered by abundant sunshine, abundant wind, and abundant geothermal

      (should be really easy for Hawaii to adapt Icelandic tech)
