They have these things. But your point is well made. This shouldn’t be a “special purchase” people make but built into our system. Why did we not think long-term about things?

News from the Red Hill Task Force meeting is shocking. The extent of the contamination was far greater than the public previously knew. The data clearly shows that the plume is spreading Ewa and mauka. #shutdownredhillnow #olaikawai #waterislife

It’s a public meeting pizza party to keep up the pressure on the US military to #shutdownredhillnow because #waterislife #olaikawai This is the 1st public meeting with the Navy since the DOD agreed to close Red Hill. This is a chance for answers, for accountability. Join us!

A friend shared this song with me and my kid loved it. Made me realize there maybe more gems like this out there that everybody knows about but me. Friends got recommendations? 🙏🏼

Happy Mother’s Day you say? That’s rich coming from the command that has mothers burning their babies at bath time, mothers uncontrollably vomiting, mothers euthanatizing the family pets. #ShutDownRedHillNOW
In case you ever doubted the connection between militarism and tourism…. I’m all for sharing in the cultures of the world. It’s the tendency towards dominance & exploitation & destruction in the US approach that I have issue with.
