Dear Councilmembers:
I am so pleased to see Bill 13 back for consideration. I strongly SUPPORT and urge passage of this bill.There are
cost effective alternatives to choosing to destroy our planet for a few pennies.
Any argument, which cites COST over ENVIRONMENT is absurd!
If it costs a few pennies, to shift the way we do business to be more in partnership with our environment, then so be it!
Please move us towards a more sustainable future!
Mahalo for ALL you do for Hawaii nei!
