Hawaii has lost more species and has more endangered species than any other state in the United States. Nearly all of the state’s native birds are in danger of becoming extinct.
Of topic but interesting and sad. This is way progress and growth without responsible management and keeping ppl accountable is disastrous.

Your right Kawena bruddah, There may be as few as 8,000 pure-blooded Native Hawaiians remaining in the world. From a poplation of about 400,000 living on major Hawai'ian islands before Cook till now.

On a quick glance I found two errors...
Quote:
The state of Hawaii has four counties: City and County of Honolulu, Kauai, Maui and Hawaii (the Big Island).
|
There are five. Most of the island of Molokaʻi is within Maui County, except for the area around the village Kalawao, which is the fifth County. As of 2012 the population was 90.
Quote:
The Hawaiian alphabet consists of only twelve letters. The five vowels are A,E, I, O,U. And the seven consonants are H,K,L,M,N,P,W.
|
There are thirteen letters in the Hawaiian alphabet. The glottal stop consonant called ʻokina was left out. On a standard keyboard it is usually indicated by an apostrophe character, as in the word 'okina (meaning ʻokina).
