April = #NativeHawaiianPlantmonth Check out this stand of endemic #Wiliwili trees we encountered doing an #archaeologicalsurvey on Maui 🤤😍 the sad reality is Hawai’i accounts for 1% of the US but is home to over 40% of the nations threatened and endangered plant species
TOGETHER WE CAN. You may have heard of the recent plan to bomb Molokini, a very special place. PLEASE TAKE THE TIME TO SIGN THIS PETITION, Hawaii Department of Land and Natural Resources: Prevent the Bombing of Molokini, July 2020- https://t.co/8mzV8QRj79 via @Change#MOLOKINI
22 years ago today, nearly five million bits of #Lego fell into the sea when a huge wave hit the cargo ship Tokio Express, washing 62 containers overboard. One contained over 4.7 million pieces of Lego, much of it sea themed. The Lego is still washing up. #oceanplastic
some good news for #Maui - @MauiReefs got a chunk of funding for fire prevention and erosion work at Maalaea - the site of last week's 4600 acre fire via @TheMauiNewsHI https://t.co/ifMqFGmrB1
This past week I had the amazing opportunity to present some preliminary soil carbon data of my ongoing masters research at @KakooOiwi at the Water Smart Innovations 2019 conference. Mahalo for everyone who has supported me! #WSI2019#HeeiaNERR#SoilCarbon#EcosystemServices
U.S. soil stores 100x more carbon than the country emits in a year. Ag is on track to reduce GHG by 46%. With innovation and investment, could reduce emissions 147% making them net negative.

September 20. See you there.
More info coming soon.
If you want to help organize with us, please follow the link in our bio to get started. No experience needed.
Grasslands on the slopes of Maalaea, West Maui burn just about every other year, forcing the retreat of woody vegetation towards the summit. Contrast that with the vegetation of neighboring slopes, protected from below by farmland and a golf course
This is a righteous piece. “As Hawaiʻi confronts a climate apocolypse.... we should consider whether the protectors bring a vision of law that will save our lives.” 😢 The synergy here is massive: Charles’ sister married our first born, her husband guided our graduate research.
Putting things into #perspective ... do you think we need more green cities globally? Living in a #city now, these scary statistics are also a reality for #Honolulu ; @TNCHawaii @WRIRossCities
By 2050 at least 70% of people will live in a city. What does this #urban growth mean for nature, asks @nature_org? We must empower cities to plan for a positive natural future. Read more in our blog from @RobIMcDonald https://t.co/SmpjRoEKIQ
