How Do Guv Candidates’ Green Creds Stack Up?
With less than two weeks remaining before the Sept. 18 primary election, Civil Beat is exploring the environmental records of the two leading Democratic candidates for governor.
We’ve compared their water bills and asked to look at their personal sustainability practices. We’ve reviewed their platforms and their promises.
Now, we ask, how do Neil Abercrombie and Mufi Hannemann stack up when we’re looking at their past work — Abercrombie in Congress, Hannemann as Honolulu mayor — on environmental issues?
Civil Beat has reached out to both Abercrombie and Hannemann to ask if there are issues they’d like to highlight in their own records or in their opponent’s. We’ve started our work and will publish our findings in advance of the primary. When we do, we’ll ask you to continue the conversation here. But until then, feel free to weigh in and point us in what you think is the right direction.
