WHAT:
RIMPAC 2016 - The US Navy is sponsoring the armed navies of 24 countries to come to Hawaiian waters and practice naval war. They call these war exercises, RIMPAC, short for rim of the Pacific. These foreign navies will blast whale-killing active sonar, shoot missiles, shoot torpedoes, drop bombs, plant mines, sink ships, test new experimental weapons and otherwise harass, pollute and upset our ocean environment and the creatures who live in it. Oceans4Peace will sponsor teach-ins, a film series, contacts with decision makers and other public education events.
WHERE:
Around the Hawaiian Islands and the Pacific Missile Research Facility on Kauai.
WHEN:
June and July 2016
ACTION:

Oceans4Peace is a Coalition of Kauai Conservation and Social Justice groups whose Mission was to educate the general public about the adverse effects of the 2016 RIMPAC, Rim of the Pacific, Naval war exercises.
The Coalition continues to monitor the US Navy for abuses to the ocean, its inhabitants and ecosystem. With Hawaii the center of the US Naval Fleet and Kauai the center of Naval war research, our Coalition continues to update its educational Process.
Presently, the on-going threat to our Ocean is the increase of the US Naval presence in the Pacific, "the Pacific Pivot," especially in the new Marine Sanctuary of the Northwest Hawaiian Islands.
The Navy has excluded all human activity there, except their own. They admit to using mid frequency and low frequency active Sonar in this so-called 'Protected Area'. This extreme sound blasting Sonar has been shown to cause harm to all ocean life, especially to marine mammals that rely on hearing for their existence.
The Navy, in partnership with the South Korean and Japanese governments, continues to build military bases only a few hundreds of miles from China, at Jeju Island in South Korea and Oura Bay, Okinawa, Japan. Both projects necessitate environmental destruction on a massive scale. We can ill afford this military buildup or the arms race with China it will provoke.
Our 'Oceans 4 Peace Coalition' is seeking the real answers, which enable us to report the truth. This page will keep you updated on US Navy impacts on our Ocean.
