Ms. May,
Thanks for your comment.

I agree; we want to save our environment and keep our state from any pollution.

But, we may need to think of our unbalanced economy, over 7000 homeless people (the highest per capita), ever rising living costs, getting over populated, rail, high taxes, etc.

Because of these, we may need to explore all possible options, and vitalize our economy in balanced way.
And, because our people’s lives are too important to ignore, we may need to PRIORITIZE, while doing our best in saving our environment as much as we can.

I know you may not like the idea.

As a medical professional, I know sometimes poisons may and can become medicine, if properly used. And, dogmatically speaking, since we are situated in the middle of the ocean, the environmental negative impact due to our prospective balanced economic growth, may be relatively small.

I promise I will do my best to preserve our environment as much as we can, while working on the projects.
I hope you understand better.
Aloha.
