Subject: Support of Bill 79
Aloha Hawaii County community leaders!
This testimony is to support the ban of GMO in Hawaii County. We do not know enough about the effects of GMO on
our environment and our health to allow further production and sale of GMO in hawaii. We cannot afford to be an
experiment lab due to our isolation! We want to preserve our land and our people and allowing these foreign practices
deemed new technology to flourish amongst us is not wise.We need the facts that say this practice of producing GMO
foods as well as the consumption of it is safe for our keiki and our entire Ohana in extension to our hawaii communities.
Without this information we cannot allow the occupation of these agricultural corporations such as Monsanto rights to
the leasing and or ownership of our land...That means lands that Belong to a trust of our kings or queens, our State
land, any ceded land as well. It is the right thing to do.We mahalo you for listening and hope that you can make the just
decision to deny the presence of GMO in our Hawaii county.
