GMO Kalo harmful to Hawaiian Culture
September 27, 2009 | 09:50 AM

We are not concerned about "scientific" evidence in regards to GMO kalo. The issue is respect for Hawaiian culture and the ancestral link between kalo and our people. "Modern agricultural practices" such as the continued theft of public trust waters, stream diversion, petroleum based fertilizer and pesticide use are the reasons why we don't have healthy and plentiful kalo. GMO kalo is not the answer-healthy soil and consistent water flow is.

Common sense is uncommon!
