Abstract

Brief excerpt from interview: Growing up in Hawaiʻi, we have such a fragile eco-system, and thinking of wastewater, we have a very limited source of water, and when I read the article about disposing of wastewater, with the chemicals, or the minerals in it that were not healthy for drinking water . . . that blew my mind, because it was kind of a ʻwe will do it until we get caughtʻ . . . that can just destroy the whole island . . . we know how valuable our fresh water and our salt water are . . . I had heard about fracking here and there, but that article revealed the water issue.
