“We are pleased to endorse the following slate of candidates,” said Scott Glenn, Chair of the Sierra Club of Hawaii “Our candidates have demonstrated a commitment to our goal of maximizing renewable energy, protecting the environment and preserving our outdoor trails and places.”
“Candidates endorsed by the Sierra Club understand that a healthy environment is the foundation of a strong economy,” said Vice Chair Roberta Brashear-Kaulfers. “We are particularly interested in candidates who will fight to make sure our utility (HEI) allows greater levels of rooftop solar onto the grid. We've helped pass programs which enable residents of all income levels, including renters, to install rooftop solar. Now we need to make sure the utility does its part to let working families participate in the savings, and simultaneously help Hawaii achieve energy independence by transitioning off of dirty fossil fuels."
