Has Honolulu considered banning the use of fossil fuels?
Here’s how Honolulu is spending its climate funds
Honolulu has set aside $9 million to expand community gardening, convert cesspools, and complete other climate projects this fiscal year.
That money comes from the city’s Climate Resiliency Fund, which voters approved in the 2024 election.
Special funds are not new — Honolulu has almost 70 such funds that finance everything from rental assistance to municipal golf courses. But the Climate Resiliency Fund is one of the first dedicated pots of money for climate adaptation work.
“This is not only unique for the City and County of Honolulu, but for all four counties in Hawai?i,” said Kealoha Fox, the executive director of the city’s Office of Climate Change, Sustainability and Resiliency, which administers the climate fund.
So, what is the city, which would be a backwards village without fossil fuels, doing with the money?
In its first year, the climate fund supported a loan program for cesspool conversions and an initiative to help residents retrofit their homes to lower electricity bills. Fox said those types of projects tackle multiple problems at once.
That has what to do with climate doom? Meh, you know they’ll have some sort of Answer, pulled out of their butts. I bet the people running this are hooked in and hooking up.
Honolulu’s Department of Parks and Recreation is getting money from the climate fund this year for four projects — including one that will create a new community garden at Asing Community Park in ?Ewa Beach.
They need this because the price of lots of foods is high, because most is grown for ones own use or shipped in.
Residents will still have to wait a few years before their first harvests in ?Ewa, as construction likely won’t start on the new garden until 2027 or 2028.
Why the hell does it take that long?
2027 is in less than 6 months. Design permits utilities contracts. Takes time to do it right. Not like the Reflecting Pool fuck up.
People in ultra blue Hawaii live longer t has an any other state. But not as long as people living in NYC
On July 21, 2026, at a National Coal Council meeting, Trump EPA Administrator Lee Zeldin said to executives from coal and mining companies in the room:
“Many of the items that were on your wish list are now done” and that the EPA is “proud to do this work to protect, advance beautiful clean coal across the United States.”
What has Don’s EPA done to “protect” the environment?
– repealed the 2024 Mercury and Air Toxics Standards updates, allowing coal- and oil-fired power plants to emit more mercury, other dangerous heavy metals and soot
– handed out Clean Air Act exemptions to allow 71 coal-fired power plants across 24 states to ignore pollution limits
– is moving to repeal limits on climate pollution from power plants
– giving out over $1 billion in subsidies to the coal industry to prop up existing uneconomic plants and build NEW ONES
– ordered the Department of War to buy electricity from coal plants
– Interior has also opened up 13 million acres of federal lands to coal mining
The US coal industry donated $10.5 Million to the 2024 election… over 97% to Repubicuns…
Great return on their investment!!!
Not even Mr Teach supports burning MORE coal!!!
Our Kentucky King Koaler no doubt supports burning MORE koal with fewer restrictions or safeguards. Every Konservative knows air pollution and global warming concerns are scams/hoaxes designed to transfer money and power from real men to the weak.
