Aloha, Welcome To Hawaii, Kapu & Keep Out
#11
... we can all take credit...

I read earlier this week that In 1881 King Kalakaua met with Thomas Edison and discussed electrical power generation on Big Island with geothermal heat, and transmitting that power to Maui & Oahu with undersea cables.

The White House in Washington DC didn’t have electricity until 10 years later in 1891.

Can you imagine if Hawaii had been powered with abundant, affordable electricity for well over 100 years? Renewable, low CO2 power for all of the islands. Had a large scale endeavor like that been constructed, what other projects may have been attempted over the years, far ahead of their time?

When I hear practitioner/protestors call development a plague I wonder, do they even know their own history and the cutting edge, forward thinking ideas supported by the Hawaiian Monarchy?
