Jeff Kim is an Economics major from Chicago who moved to O‘ahu two years ago.

“Economics doesn’t get me excited to get out of bed in the morning. But when it comes to climate change, it’s as useful as it can be in addressing the climate crisis. … It can create policy-level solutions like the cap and trade … and carbon taxes. … These economically based solutions are going to be the most effective. I want to do what I can to address the climate crisis.”

Jeff manages the Honolulu chapter of Citizens’ Climate Lobby (notice his hat) and is also on the executive committee for the Sierra Club on Oahu.

    Imie came to Hawai‘i from Cagayan de Oro City, in the Philippines, two years ago. She started school last fall, and is taking general education courses at the moment. Her sister owns a care home, and she currently works as a Certified Nurse Assistant — CNA — there, helping to take care of three patients. The job experience has motivated Imie to further her studies and pursue a career in nursing. However, the 23-year old believes "it is really hard to get into nursing school". In her free time, she enjoys the beautiful hikes and beaches on the island. Her favorite is Lanikai beach, in Kailua.
