Hawai‘i ended 150 years of plantation agriculture with the closure of HC&S in January, and is entering a
new era with a dual focus on renewable energy generation and local food production. Biofuels is at the
intersection between these two trends. What do we want the next 150 years to look like? What do
integrated food and fuel systems look like for Hawai‘i’s future? How do we manage priorities between
Hawai‘i’s ambitious 100% renewable electricity goals, diversified agriculture, and economic drivers like
tourism? What under the sun do these entities have in common? Come for town‐hall style discussion
with practitioners from the field and a visual tour of Hawai’i’s integrated food and fuel potential, and be
prepared to be surprised with new information!
