Subject: Please support Bill 79
Dear Councilperson Yoshimoto,
I am writing in supoprt of Bill 79. I moved to Hawaii to be able to grow food amongst and as a small farmer and
homesteader in a clean environment. I, as do so many others, highly value the purity and healthiness of this island's air,
water, and food. GMOs and their associated large-scale monocropping with heavy application of pesticides and
herbicides take Hawaii in the opposite direction. I urge you to vote for Bill 79 to keep Hawaii and its crops safe and clean
for people.
Sincerely,
Norris Thomlinson
Kapoho
PS I am attaching my comments as a Word document in case you want to print them out.
