Kapoho petri pools
#14
Yes, the signs used to be there. As a visitor I realize I’m taking a chance snorkeling there, but I wear a wetsuit (yes, I look ridiculous!) rather than scratch myself on lava and risk infection. And I always snorkel at high tide (it’s better then anyway). I always shower well when I get home.

It’s a complex problem but with more development it seems like something like a either a centralized water treatment facility or individual cesspools that somehow biodegrade fecal matter will need to be used in the communities. It’s not right to have raw sewage polluting the ocean. There are just too many consequences to the environment.

I would support a “Keep Hawai’i Beautiful” tax added onto tourist amenities to fund something like this. Probably not a good idea right now, but when things rebound it might be good. We malihini are causing a lot of the problems. Why shouldn’t we be part of the solution?
