Day 1 Day 2
The County of Hawaiʻi’s Office of the Mayor hosted a free virtual Sustainability Summit on March 4th & 5th, 2021. The intent was to bring bright minds together to explore and share sustainable ideas and solutions, and to celebrate individuals and collaborative sustainability efforts currently happening in Hawaiʻi County.
It was 2-days of inspiring keynote speakers and 14 engaging breakout sessions that cultivated imagination, and developed actionable strategies that set the course for a more Sustainable County of Hawaiʻi. Collectively we can balance environmental health, social equity, and economic vitality and craft a thriving, healthy, diverse, and resilient island for this generation and generations to come.
