Clip of the Week: A Brief History of Water Rights in Hawaii, by Earth Justice’s Isaac Moriwake
April 28, 2009
On Earth Day, we were at Maui Community College, attending a film screening of the documentary “The Water Front“, “the story of one community’s determination to fight the seemingly inevitable path of water privatization”. Earth Justice attorney Isaac Moriwake spoke before the screening, and gave a great summary of the history of water law in Hawai’i.
