Continuation from A Dream of Energy

A user left a comment on my Dream of Energy blog saying that although he agrees for a greener Maui, if the sugarcane were to be removed, we would have a bigger problem with dust and erosion.
I had a spring thought that instead of sugarcane, what if we were to replace that with pili grass instead?

Reduce, Reuse and Recycle! Step Two: REUSE

Continuing on from the 3 R’s post
These are my examples on how to perform them to help protect the environment.

The second R is Reuse:

1.)You can reuse plastic and glass bottles many times over.
Bottled water is the dumbest thing I have ever heard of. Water is available through your tap! The only thing you buy when you buy bottled water is… lower quality water and the plastic.


A Dream of Energy

So I was thinking. Mokulele Hwy here on Maui is a daily commute to and from Kahului to Kihei.

So is Haleakala Hwy. A daily commute to and from Maui's upcountry to central town.
