Hawaii's 'overtourism' becomes growing debate as West Maui reopens for visitors
Kiara Alfonseca West Maui began reopening Sunday to visitors just two months after a wildfire devastated the town of Lahaina. The reopening did not come without outrage from some residents, many of whom signed a petition to delay the reopening as families continue to struggle to "find shelter, provide for their children's education, and cope with emotional trauma," according to the petition. Homes have been flattened and are completely inhabitable. Businesses have been decimated. Some loved ones remain unaccounted for and residents have been grieving the loss of 97 people who died in the tragedy.
