The Power of Festivals to Build Community
There is a ‘crisis of connection’ in the modern world and it is becoming ever more important that leaders in government, business, the arts and other disciplines recognize the power of celebration to renew our sense of community.

People long for meaning. They look for it in their rituals, seek it in their culture, from their parents, teachers, friends and community leaders. They create for themselves values which then govern their interactions with people and help shape the communities in which they live. They explore the community, seeking integration into the community. To belong.

Festivals are a way of being, in which individuals can safely be themselves, while simultaneously being with many different types of cultures, personalities, and stages of developments. In this and many other ways, festivals build community, diversity, tolerance, and positive values like sharing, helping, contributing and being a part of the community.

Ocean Acidification
By Heather Sandison
Since the industrial revolution began about 200 years ago, carbon dioxide released from burning fossil fuels and the production of cement has been released into the atmosphere and absorbed by our oceans. The marine uptake of carbon dioxide has caused a 30% increase in the concentration of hydrogen ions leading to a reduction in surface seawater pH. If current fuel consumption trends continue there will be a 3 fold increase by 2100. Ocean acidification is happening in addition to, and could potentially intensify, global climate change. Action needs to be taken now to reduce this rate as much as possible. We can help by cutting our own carbon emissions. Carpool, drive less, hang clothes on the line, eat less meat, buy local, go solar! The ways you can help are endless! Enjoy Hawaii’s coral reefs and allow protecting them to be your motivation to reduce your carbon footprint!
