Survey: Growing number of Hawaii residents feel state moving in wrong direction

HONOLULU (HawaiiNewsNow) – A new survey shows an increasing number of Hawaii residents feel the state is moving in the wrong direction.

The Pacific Resource Partnership launched its first Hawaii Perspectives report back in 2019 with 45% of respondents saying the state is on the wrong track.

Five years later, more than half of respondents now share that feeling.

“It’s really frightening at least for me personally having a young family and knowing that my daughter growing up will face very similar issues that we see captured in the research,” said PRP interim executive director Josh Magno.

“For the organization and for myself, it’s really trying to work with other partners in the community to really find positive solutions.”

The major issues driving that negative feeling are familiar ones with 75% of respondents citing affordable housing, cost of living, and homelessness as their key concerns.

Rolling Blackouts by Hawaiian Electric

Hawaiian Electric avoided a second straight evening of rolling blackouts across Oahu on Tuesday, but the power shutoffs Monday substantiated prior concerns about the company’s shift to more renewable energy. https://bit.ly/48Ifa4h

Hawaiian Electric a second evening of rolling blackouts…

Disappointed by the false claims in this article about Oahu’s recent rolling blackouts and their cause – it’s time to set the record straight on Renewable Energy.

1️⃣ Don’t buy into the misinformation spread by the Fossil Fuel industry.
2️⃣ The truth? Renewable Energy stands out for its reliability.
3️⃣ Opting for decentralized power generation is the smart choice.

Don’t be swayed by misleading narratives. 🌿💡
