Voici M. Kaleo Manuel, le responsable de l'eau à #Hawaï qui a refusé de débloquer des ressources en eau et de laisser les propriétaires terriens lutter contre l'incendie de #Maui avec pas grand chose expliquant sa "philosophie" de l'eau :
"Les Hawaïens considéraient l'eau comme l'une des manifestations terrestres d'un dieu... Nous avons pris l'habitude de considérer l'eau comme quelque chose que nous utilisons, et non comme quelque chose que nous vénérons... Nous pouvons nous reconnecter à cet ensemble de valeurs traditionnelles".
Je suis sûre que toutes les victimes de l'incendie de Maui sont reconnaissantes à leurs dirigeants de s'être concentrés sur l'adoration de l'eau plutôt que de l'utiliser pour sauver leurs vies. 🤡

The commission's responsibility is to protect and manage all water resources in the state. The concept of "one water" is about viewing water holistically, similar to how native Hawaiians traditionally managed it. They saw water as a manifestation of Agad and Akua Kain, treating it with reverence and maintaining a reciprocal relationship. However, over time, we have started to view water as something we use rather than something we revere as the source of life. To address this shift, we need to reconnect with the traditional value set and let water connect us instead of dividing us. True conversations about equity are necessary for sharing water.
Speaker 0: The commission is responsible, per per our authorizing statute, to protect and manage all water resources in the state. One water is like taking it and looking at it from a holistic system perspective, and that's not any different than how Hawaiians traditionally manage water. You know, in in essence, We treated it and native Hawaiians treated water as one of the earthly manifestations of Agad and Akua Kain. And so that reverence, for a resource and that reciprocity in relationship was was something that was really, really important to our worldview and well-being, right, and living in an island and isolated from other civilizations. And so I think where it shifted to today or over time is that we've become used to looking at water as, like, something which we use and not necessarily something that we revere as that thing that gives us life.
Right? I mean, to me, it's a shift in value set. And if we can start to really look at how we as humans in an island, can reconnect to that traditional value set. So really, my motto is always like, let water connect us and not divide us. Like, we we can share it, but it requires True conversations about equity.

@CalliFanciulla Excusez mon ignorance mais sur une île comme Hawaï il n'y a pas de système de pompage d'eau de mer pour les incendies ?

@EmelineCoch Je ne sais pas quoi vous répondre. Je suis tentée de dire que oui. Mais il y a des témoignages troublants en provenance de Maui… l’eau aurait été coupée…

The Hawaiian fire incident is being attributed to climate change, but there are some missing factors. One woman mentioned that water was shut off, preventing people from extinguishing the fires. Additionally, school cancellations meant that children were at home during the fire. A video showed police officers turning people away from escaping due to power lines blocking the road, forcing them back into the fires. A book titled "Fire and Fury" was released, discussing the Maui Fire and its implications for climate change. The speaker suggests that weather modification through geoengineering may be involved, pointing to a website for more information. The inconsistencies between official narratives and eyewitness accounts raise questions about who is altering the weather.
Speaker 0: So we wanna talk about a few things that are missing from the equation of the Hawaiian fire. They're saying that this is climate change, but this lady was talking about how they shut off the water so that people couldn't put out the fires. Also, she mentioned that all the children were home that day because school was canceled. Then we go to this guy's video and he was talking about how people were trying to escape the city and are being turned around by the police officers just due to the power lines that were in the road. So they forcefully told the people to go back into the fires.
Now now it's also weird about this whole situation is that this book came out yesterday, Fire and Fury, the story of the 2023 Maui Fire and its implications for climate change. So you force the people back into the town while it was burning, turned off the water, altered the weather with geoengineering and then called it climate change. So a lot of people are gonna ask, who is modifying the weather? I'm gonna give you a hint. This is the website, this is the link, and look into geoengineering part 1, 2, and 3.
If we go to page 4 of this document, it says geoengineering can be described as the deliberate, large scale modification of the Earth's climate systems. So the media is saying that this is all based should on the climate. But when I look at this, I'm seeing that the US House of Representatives and Committee of Science and Technology are altering the weather, number 1. And number 2, all the stories are not adding up to what we were told shown by the people
