A sunbather naps face down in the shade of a coconut palm at Waikiki Beach in Honolulu, Hawaii on December 23, 2021. Waikiki Beach is imperilled by sea level rise and erosion. Tourism's contribution of 25% of Hawaii's annual state income makes substantial investments in sand replenshiment worthwhile as long as the beach itself is still viable—perhaps until 2050, under current sea level rise predictions of 1.1' by 2050, per NASA's announcement in November 2022 reporting the liklihood of sea level rise exceeding previous estimates.
