Congratulations to the City's Climate Champions! We celebrated the 2024 cohort with a hōʻike that showcased their impressive climate adaptation projects, which ranged in topic from tree harvest guides, to Firewise Communities, to native plants. We're so proud of the Champions for their hard work, leadership, and for paving the way to a climate ready future! Mahalo to the six community-based organizations who hosted the internships, Bishop Museum for displaying the projects, and to the EPA for their Environmental Justice Government-to-Government Grant. #ClimateReadyOahu #ClimateChampions #ClimateAdaptation
