Subject: Bill 13 re: styrofoam
Date 6{Ai
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,
Rebecca Lake
