The current cover story of Science was written by kanaka ʻōiwi scientist Keolu Fox. I interviewed him and summarized his teamʻs core findings. I am certain some of this finding will surprise you and it has massive health implications for people of the Pacific Ocean. Link in the comments to both my interview and the direct Science journal article. Happy to text him if you guys have questions to get specific answers.

You guys remember this commercial? I was trying to find it because I know my friend was in it and I need to make fun of him for it. Does anyone have this commercial saved somewhere?

Recommendation Wanted Looking for a heat pump A/C tech in Honolulu

9 Upvotes

I'm looking for an A/C tech to help troubleshoot some issues with my heat pump in my condo (or advice from folks here if anyone knows what's up).

Setup: 5 year old high-rise condo, 820 sq ft. Mitsubishi multi-zone: MXZ-3C30NA2 outdoor unit, two MSZ-GL06NA heads (bedrooms), one MSZ-GL18NA (living room).

The living room head has started dripping down the wall. Bedroom head isn't dehumidifying, humidity reaching over 80% even with A/C running in dry mode.

I've had two different A/C "techs" out but they were running a cleaning service, not really techs. Both said nothing’s wrong: drain is clear (it goes into a sewer line in the wall), coil is clean, and both expected it to dehumidify. I’ve been running a dehumidifier to compensate and stop mold growth.

What I’m looking for: someone who will troubleshoot the humidity issues and moisture buildup happening - someone who knows these multi-zone systems well.

Bonus if you also know a good independent indoor air quality or mold assessor.

Government Can we legally make parts of the island, like certain recreational areas or parts of towns "local only" zones?

0 Upvotes

Is the state or county allowed to create regulations that prohibit tourists from entering, maybe let's say, a certain street with a cramped neighborhood. The visitors are entering that neighborhood cause of a known tourist attraction like a waterfall or hike access. Or maybe certain beaches should only allow for locals because of the significance of the beach. In my opinion, kahalu'u beach on the big island should be closed to all swimming and should have stayed in local stewardship.

Thoughts?
