New Water Bottling Plant in Hilo Proposed

[Rob Tucker]

I see no point in trying to argue with someone on this topic. State your views for those that are interested. For those that aren't interested let it slide.

Assume the best and ask questions.

I think you're right, Rob, it's time to stop arguing with this idiot. The "ilk" he mentions include some of the top astrophysicists in the world that worked here in the islands using the best technology available including at least three Nobel Physics Prize winners, but science is not important to conspiracy theorists.

Mark and others,

Please keep your climate conversations directly related to Hawaii. IF not I will have to lock things up.

Assume the best and ask questions.

half a mile of glacier gone.

I wonder how many 12 oz disposable plastic bottles that would fill with ice cold Cherry Pick-d Anecdotal Glacier Fresh ™ water? Or their other brand Cherry PickD ™?

I no longer support the bottling plant. In fact, I'll go all-in and now oppose said plant totally. We simply must do something, and opposing said plant is a good first step.

As a scuba diver from the 1970's (first regulator was a US Divers Royal Aqua Masters 2-hose), I revere the ocean.

You crushed it, and I am humbled!!!

There you go!!! A good first step. I Despise ALL LITTERBUGS, and if this is what must start the ball rolling, I support it fully. And ban cigarettes, toxic filth that they are.
