The Hawaiian islands’ coal shipments are ending. The bulker carrying the state’s final coal shipment will leave this week after refueling the state’s last coal-fired power plant. That plant is scheduled to close in September forcing the state’s energy providers to compete with the US Navy for oil tankers.
AES Hawaii, operator of the largest power plant on Oahu, received 15,000 tons of Indonesian coal from the Liberian flag bulker MV Flying Tiger. The 180-megawatt plant is the biggest source of the island’s electricity and provided 13% of the state’s overall power in 2018.

Why just blight the beautiful vistas with forests of windmills and clad Diamond Head with solar panels topped with some windmills. The tourists on Waikiki Beach won’t mind the new look.
Sell it to Japan. They "Buy High, and Sell Low".
They can hire Donald Trump to build "World Class Resorts and Golf Courses".
And....they can use "AOC's Bridge"; to cut down on their carbon footprint.
Okay, so you agree with me, that by your definition only Adam and Eve and their direct descendants who never left and still today live in the Garden of Eden are “natives.”
By your definition, the other 99.9999999999999999999999 % of humanity of humans are non-natives.

Travis, are you using two screen names?
You trickster.
My real name is Matt Bracken, I’ve been using my real name on all other social medium since the early 2000s.
But when I signed up for FR in Jan of 2000, this was my first social media, and I signed up as Travis McGee, from the novels. However, I also commonly use my real name here on FR, such as for my podcast links. Or, you can find my real name from the website tagline.
I have never once used a duplicate FR account or separate screen name, if that’s what you are inferring.
Minorities (Obamas) hit hardest.
Can you burn coconuts and pineapples?
And the idiots on Big Island have an entire department to maintain the stupid windmills that produce no energy just so they can say, “We use green energy.”
And good luck Oahu. There is not enough land mass to install enough solar panels to run that state. And fun fact. If there is ever a fire in one of the tunnels, Like Like, there is not enough power to run the fans without shutting down the southern Oahu grid.
the replacement technology is Solar and Wind stored in batteries. All made in china with materials primarily produced in china. Ultimately, Hawaii will be sold to china if the biden pattern continues.
