 Maui Sustainability
 
 

     As the Maui Chamber of Commerce is assisting with the creation of the Hawaii 2050 Sustainability Plan, we feel it is important to recognize the sustainable efforts already underway. Thankfully, we’re blessed with a host of excellent examples on Maui .

      Therefore, we’re creating a repository of information on sustainable programs and practices employed by Maui ’s business community. By sharing this information on our website and through The Chamber View articles in the Maui News, we hope to interest the public in creating a sustainable Maui and further educate, inform, and encourage businesses to incorporate sustainability practices, programs, and technology in their operations.

     Below, you’ll find examples of what a few Chamber members are currently doing. Please feel free to share your information with us by emailing it to info@mauichamber.com. We look forward to hearing how you are working towards a sustainable Maui and Hawaii .
