Join with Us to Create a Positive Vision for Punalu`u
We hope you will join with us to protect Punalu`u -- one of the last beaches in the state that has not become overshadowed
by a huge towering hotel and resort complex. And we want to keep it that way.
Imagine KA`U as a LIVING CLASSROOM that can become a "Eco-Campus" for students and educators from around the
world. We believe KA`U can become a model for sustainable Earth friendly development for the rest of the world. With public
input and community involvement we can create a VISION that comes from people of KA`U who have protected its resources for
nearly two thousand years. See the link below to send us your ideas!
We intend to create a positive vision and protect Punalu`u forever as an essential gathering place for local families,
a nesting site for the endangered Hawksbill Sea Turtle, a habitat for the rare and endangered Hawaiian Monk Seal, the Hawiian
Hoary Bat and other endangered plant and animals.
Punalu`u is also home to a some of the largest Hawaiian sacred sites and burial complexes in the state.

Sample letter to Government officials:
Dear ---------:
As a concerned resident/visitor of Hawai`i I would like to ask you to help protect Punalu`u Beach from development. Punalu`u
is one of the last beaches in the state that has not become overshadowed by a huge towering hotel and resort complex.
Because Punalu`u is an essential gathering place for local families, a nesting site for the endangered Hawksbill Sea Turtle,
a habitat for the rare and endangered Hawaiian Monk Seal, the Hawiian Hoary Bat and other endangered plant and animals AND
home to a some of the largest Hawaiian sacred sites and burial complexes in the state, it must be protected!
As a supporter of protecting Hawaiian Lands and the environment we are confident you will do whate ver you can to stop
this dangerous development and help us protect Punalu`u forever.
Sincerely,
