Abstract

Description

In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, resource managers should be emboldened to finally manage wai proactively as waiwai, for the benefit of all of Hawaiʻi’s present and future residents. The Water Code and Commission have had the necessary legal and adaptive management frameworks in place for decades, but what has been missing is leadership and funding. Decisionmakers must invest in Hawaiʻi’s waiwai by redistributing fresh water, and managing and protecting resources in response to a warming planet.
