The state Legislature started its new session Wednesday, but Opening Day ceremonies were muted.
HONOLULU, Hawaii (HawaiiNewsNow) - Hawaii made history on Thursday by becoming the first state to declare a climate emergency.
Although the resolution passed by the state Legislature is symbolic, it acknowledges that climate change is an immediate threat.
The resolution calls on government to make choices that will enable a more sustainable future. It goes as far as to ask for a ban on public and private investments that would make the climate worse.
