The way to go: Hawaii increases its tax on hotel rooms, rentals & cruise ships to fund the protection of shorelines (raising $100M/year!!). This move is supported by the hotel industry as it will 'improve the visitor experience.'👏 www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025... @globalsolidaritylevies.org

Hawaii will tax vacation stays and use money to help counter climate crisis

Tax expected to generate nearly $100m annually, to be used for projects such as replacing sand on eroding beaches
