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.
Styrofoam was a mistake by humans. We need to start the change here.
Many thanks for your time and consideration.
Sincerely,
Margaret McLaughlin
