Kaua‘i will learn from O‘ahu at sea level rise forum

Beaches on Kaua‘i will shrink in coming years, as global warming continues to prompt sea level rise.

The Kaua‘i Climate Action Forum – made up of local environmental groups Zero Waste Kaua‘i, Kaua‘i Climate Action Coalition and the Surfrider Foundation Kaua‘i Chapter – will take lessons from O‘ahu at its next online event.

The Surfrider Foundation’s Hawai‘i Regional Manager Lauren Blickley will discuss community response to coastal erosion on the North Shore of O‘ahu at 6 p.m. on Wednesday, Feb. 8.

Blickley’s presentation will be followed by a Q&A period and community discussion.
