There are numerous issues with this plan and testimony is overwhelmingly opposed to the basis and concepts which only benefit stakeholders.Where is all of the public comment being compiled and integrated?Why have all the January opportunities to testify been cancelled? Please provide receipt of my testimony provided via email. Mahalo, Donna Thompson Kamuela,HI Sent with Proton Mail secure email.

This plan is based off a template handed down thru the United Nations Agenda 21.This document is a good overview to educate county planning and legislative officials on AGENDA 21 and should be mandatory reading.httos://nwri.orgy-content/uploads/2011/07/How-Public-Officials-can-Recognize-Agenda-21.pdf The original version in 2005 plan contains the words"homeowner"and'farmer"while the 2045 plan is written by and for"stakeholders!"This is outrageous and the words"homeowner"and"farmer"do not appear anywhere! "Farmer"is in the 2005 General Plan fourteen(14)times and "homeowner"appears four(4)times.Below are just a few things that need addressing: 1. The State and County ARE corporations and have no right to acquire land.The proposed re-zoning is excessive overreach for the benefit of stakeholders and will affect landowners tremendously.This will open up the county for massive legal recourse that will tie up county resources for many years. 2. Remove reference to climate change caused by humans,this is unproven and junk science(see additional resources below).This includes removing references to"carbon footprint',"net zero","greenhouse gas","green infrastructure" and/or"climate adaptation".Carbon dioxide sequestration is a really really stupid idea,waste of tax payer funds and energy,and will further degrade our flora and fauna. 3. Remove the section 2.2 Biocultural Stewardship Goal(1.13)because State and County corporations are not acting on behalf of its residents and clearly acting on behalf of stakeholders. 4. Remove the word"stakeholder"from everywhere it appears,and instead use the words"land owner"or'farmer/rancher". 5. REMOVE 32c and 32p and 20e because all have to do with the egregious concept of"smart'cities. 6. Remove ANY use of the word"resilience."This is a psychological term that has NO PLACE in a government document. 7. Close down the County Office of Sustainability,Climate,Equity,and Resilience(OSCER)as NOBODY VOTED FOR TH IS OFFICE TO BE STARTED and it is a waste of resources. Remove ANY reference to such office from the proposed General Plan the citizens can work directly with the county. 8. The governments intention for"inspection"or"surveillance"or"inventory'of land and water catchment is in direct violation of privacy rights. 9. Add language for safeguarding against the danger of emerging technology,including 5G.Language needs to be drafted regarding technology easements based on health studies conducted by 3rd party with no conflict of interest. 10. Remove the phrase"circular systems". This is a concept only vaguely defined and certainly without any solid demonstration of its use. 11. Remove the phrase'Vision Zero"as it has NO RELEVANCE for our island. 12. Remove the phrase"One Water"as it refers to a North America group and has NO RELEVANCE for our island. 13. There is no clear plan for strengthening infrastructure and power grid against space weather. 14. The document contains no explanation how the county will handle a breakdown of critical infrastructure(supply chain,energy, communications)due to impending space weather/solar events in which the Federal Government has been diligently preparing for due to weakening magnetosphere(see additional resources below). 15. Include language to ban"man made"weather modification,spraying of nano particulate in the atmosphere,and geoengineering activities that have a significant impact on health,property,and the environment. 16. Include language against harmful chemicals,pesticides such as glyphosate,and genetically altered organisms(including vectors of disease)from being released into the environment. 17. Implement severe restrictions for artificial intelligence data centers proposed by"stakeholders"that will drain the power grid. 18. Implement provisions regarding military training and operations that are transparent and safe for the environment.Depleted uranium dropped in the Saddle Region next to an active Volcano is NOT acceptable whatsoever,nor is excessive underground explosions that have been going on for years that parallel training operations at Pohakuloa Training Area(PTA). 19. Developers should not be granted relief from requirements for sidewalks,bike lanes,etc...a dedicated bike lane should be implemented on all major roads. 20. Include information on the drawbacks of electric vehicles to include draw on the grid,disposal of batteries,and fire dangers. Climate Mitigation Basis for Plan is Unfounded A great deal of content is based on Climate Mitigation from human activity which has a minuscule effect on the earth's overall climate.Over 99%of the climate affects are driven by solar activity,cycles,and space weather.The document completely fails to mention the threat of space weather and is almost entirely focused on carbon emissions promoted by the United Nations Climate Agenda.Our Federal Government has been preparing for space weather threats for many years,yet the Hawai'i island GP lacks any reference to this even though critical infrastructure
