GMO 4PM Hearing Tuesday, Oct. 15th

Please go to the Hawaii County Council hearing on Tuesday, Oct. 15th at 4PM in Kona, or go to one of the county satellite sites around the island, –Waimea, Hilo, Pahoa to testify in support of Bill 113 Draft 2 to ban further GMO plantings in Hawaii County.  This is a very significant step for the future of Hawaii County and the world.
Dennis “Fresh” Onishi has introduced several amendments which appear to broaden the exemptions, requires no registration, and waters down the intent of law.  I do not support these amendments.
Please pass the word to others and encourage them to attend even if they do not intend to testify.
Mahalo.
Jim
