-Even though I come from people of the ocean, they sometimes forget about the aina and how important it is to care about the aina.

They don't realize that that affects the ocean because when we get big rain, that all comes down.

So we have to care because we're all connected.

Yeah, it's crazy because I only hear of stories of the whole Hokulea renaissance and the Kaho'olawe, and just, my leaders were a part of that.

And now that I'm of this age, and there's something happening in my lifetime, I am old enough, and I have the power to use my voice and make a difference.

Another reason I'm happy to go plant-based is because of the environmental impact that it leaves in this whole entire world.

Knowing that they're burning the Amazon because of the consumers eating beef, that's pretty disgusting to me.

I think a lot of communities from all over the world can learn from indigenous people.

This has always been going on, and this is what we've always been fighting for, and this is what we've always been trying to preserve.

And I think that could save the world.

♪♪ -There was a time when almost every yard in Hawaii had a mango tree, often more than one.

These trees represented community, the past, present, and future.

A person's yard was their own personal grocery store with fruits and vegetable gardens.

Today, our habits have changed.

We have come to rely on others to grow and prepare our food.

The world is constantly on the move, and we rely on food that is cheap, convenient, and fast.

But if we slow down and listen, you'll discover there are still ways we can eat healthy and care for our world.

This wisdom resides deeply embedded within our indigenous communities.
