The Original Hawaiians and Ancient Civilizations Understood

"The original Hawaiians knew something about preserving the beach. As it turns out, so did many ancient civilizations across time. Care for the earth and ocean as an ethic, has really only been lost since we gained the massive power to destroy, sometime during the industrial revolution." (Quote from Chris Evans, Executive Director of Surfrider Foundation USA, from the August 2002 issue of Surfrider's MAKING WAVES, at http://surfrider-org.temp-url.com/makingwaves/makingwaves18-4/3.pdf
