    My name is ______ and I am writing in support of Kauai County Council Members, Gary Hooser and Tim Bynum, County Bill 2491 that will give us the right to know what chemicals are being sprayed when and where, also ban open air experiments and demand that the impacts of the biotech GMO agriculture be studied through an Environmental Impacts Statement (EIS).

    ~ I am extremely concerned about the open air chemical hazards of GMOs to biodiversity, food safety, human and animal health, and demand a moratorium on environmental releases in accordance with the precautionary principle.

    ~ I am opposed to GM crops that will intensify corporate monopoly, increase chemical usage, exacerbate inequality and prevent the essential shift to sustainable agriculture that can provide food security and health around the world.

    ~ I call for a ban on patents of life-forms and living processes which threaten food security, sanction biopiracy of indigenous knowledge and genetic resources and violate basic human rights and dignity.

    ~ I demand more support on research and development of non-corporate, sustainable agriculture that can benefit family farmers all over the world.

    Aloha Aina, Malama Pono.

    PEOPLE AND PLANET OVER PROFIT.
