waste to energy plants could be a better option
Don't forget, County couldn't even open a composting plant -- any location is either "next to someone's house", or "on sacred land", or on "land that you have to lease (thereby inflating the operating cost)".
Unfortunately Hawaii is at a dead end until this generation dies off..It seems a bit silly that kids are smarter than their parents/grandparents...
Okay Google... Who are these people and why ain't they working?
