July 312015 Rather than harangue the Counsel I am submitting a collection of the latest information on the glyphospate/Roundup environmental dangers. Alaska banned state use of these poisons roadside years ago. The alternative for the County of Hawaii, hiring more locals to cut and tend roadsides is a plus. I watched a state road crew man spraying on Aconi Pule cross the street from the Kohala Elementary School and the mist was carried right into the classrooms, I alerted the Principle to the dangerous contamination. Kinnersley street in Kapaau sprayed for years by residents and the County and State has had cancer cluster outbreaks, far too many for normal uncontaminated populations The cancer linkages are too strong to deny . Even the United Nations have taken a stand alerting the world to the agent orange like Monsanto and Dow chemicals. Europe has banned similar usage . Our Keikes deserve a return to a pristine environment, Ban the poisons or face medical lawsuits, in the near future as medical reports world wide are warning or have warned of the undeniable cancer linkages of similar "Defoliants" below are links to current information. As a Vietnam survivor of "Agent Orange linked cancer I can assure you that continued Monsanto Round Up will cause millions of dollars of future state medical expenses to care for the future cancer clusters. Please take the time from your busy schedules to peruse the informational links below. And take it from a cancer survivor you and your families are just as likely if exposed to suffer the same fates as my fellow vets and local neighbors now suffering from likely contamination cancers.
