It is government overreach and will increase regulations and reduce freedom for people <br /> under a false premise. The General Plan manager stated that they did research with the <br /> Federal Government, not actual weather experts and scientists. Gregg Braden is a <br /> geologist, five-time New York Times best-selling author, scientist, international <br /> educator, and renowned as a pioneer in the emerging paradigm based in science, social <br /> policy, and human potential, had this to say about the dangers of carbon on the planet: <br /> "The idea that carbon dioxide is a poison is a false narrative to begin with. We are <br /> carbon-based beings. By demonizing carbon dioxide and carbon life, we're actually <br /> demonizing ourselves. Source: "Gregg Braden - Why "THE POWERS THAT BE" are <br /> So Desperate to Reduce Carbon Dioxide on OUR Planet?"by Gregg Braden Official, <br /> January 11, 2023. hapS7/Zyoutu.be/7vJ-Oefos8A?si=BviOKcdznXx6tgSO <br /> Braden also stated in the same interview: `7f you could look at the ice cores in Antarctica and <br /> Greenland,you would see that the temperature of the Earth increases or decreases <br /> around 800 years before the change in carbon dioxide. That means carbon dioxide does not <br /> drive the change; it is the response to the temperature change. "We're being led to believe <br /> that carbon levels of CO2 have never been higher; that the Earth is going to be destroyed if <br /> they are higher; and that CO2 is the driving temperature, both of which are not true." <br /> • Climate Change: This entire section should be removed. It is absolute government <br /> overreach again on a false premise. An article at Britannica.com written by Thor Arthur <br /> Hansen, Professor of Invertebrate Paleontology, Paleoecology, and Evolution at <br /> Western Washington University, U.S., and Carl Fred Koch, Professor of Geological <br /> Sciences at Old Dominion University, Norfolk, Virginia. It was fact-checked by The <br /> Editors of Encyclopaedia Britannica and last updated on Feb 7, 2024. The article said <br /> that sea level was higher primarily because the water in the ocean basins was displaced <br /> by the enlargement of mid-oceanic ridges . It was not due to carbon! It was due to the <br /> Earth's mantle. Source: "Cretaceous Period,"by Carl Fre Koch, Thor Arthur <br /> Hansen, ems://www.britannica.com/science/Cretaceous-Period <br /> If you need more experts proving what they are saying in the plan is false, let me know. It is <br /> important to have experts give their opinion and not those invested in renewable energy. <br /> • Rezoning: The plan will not directly rezone areas but it opens the door to rezoning in <br /> many many areas. This will change people's way of life and have a huge impact on the <br /> future of our keiki. What local would want that? <br /> This plan should be stopped immediately. It is not the plan that 4K locals worked on. <br /> No local would want... <br /> • Their property value to be reduced <br /> • To turn much of the coastland to conservation and have that impact people's property <br /> value and right to enjoy the land <br /> • To have more regulations,policies and fines <br /> • To have "incentives" ie. tax increases, to force people to do what the government wants <br /> There are no sections in the plan for: <br /> • Supporting people to grow more food. <br /> • The needed CDP for Hilo <br />
