Subject: I support Bill 13 to reduce polystyrene foam food containers on Hawai'i Island!
Aloha members of the Council,
I support the initiative proposed by Councilwoman O'Hara to reduce the amount of polystyrene foam food containers&
food service ware on Hawai'i Island starting on July 1st, 2018. It is important for us to make decisions that promote the
health and wellness of our island communities and native wildlife. Bill 13 is one of such crucial steps in the right
direction, and will lead us on a pathway towards a zero-waste and sustainability for our island home.
We have owned a small apartment on the Big Island since 1996 and consider it our second home, a home of endless yet
fragile beauty that calls for wise and careful stewardship, including not least passage of this bill
Many thanks for your time and consideration.
Sincerely,
...' COUNTY CLERK
