Subject: Bill 167
Aloha mai kakou
My name is Len Hokulani Losalio I live in Captain Cook. I am a Hawaiian student at Ke Kula '0
Ehunuikaimalino. In science class my classmates and I learned about sunscreens and other things that
harm the coral. I am writing this to you today because I heard that Bill 167 is being discussed by the
county, and I am asking for your help for this Bill ke 'olu'olu. The reason this Bill is important to me is
because i really don't want to see the Hawaiian ocean life die out because of bad sunscreens. Also Healthy
coral reefs help to protect our island community.The chemicals in non-mineral sunscreen inhibit coral growth and degrade the
integrity of our reefs. This bill aims to preserve the health, safety, and welfare of humans and the environment by allowing only
mineral sunscreens to be provided, sold, offered for sale, or distributed in the County.
I submit my testimony in strong support of Bill 167.
