Subject: Pass Resolution 234-25
Aloha members of the Hawaii County Council's Policiy Committee on Environmental and Natural Resources
Management, My name is Kali kopuanoheaokalani Aiu and I currently reside on Oahu.
Today I take time out of my day to urge you to join the many hands, hearts, and minds that are listening to Pohakuloa,
and PASS Resolution 234-25.
Continued use and desecration of Pohakuloa is not pono and directly opposes any efforts that support the environmental
health of the land and peoples of Hawai'i and on Hawai'i, as well as the cultural significance of this place.
Several years of misuse and harm MUST end.
20,000 acres have been burned, critically endangering the health of native species, their habitat, and native flora and
fauna. Not to mention, the effects of repeatedly bombing a place has generational health effects we have yet to
understand.
Let's give the children of the future something to tend to that feeds them. Not something that makes them sick.
Join us in protecting'aina, protecting yourselves, protecting your loved ones. Protect Pohakuloa. Pass Resolution 234-25.
Mahalo for your time,
Kali kopua noheaokala ni Aiu o
