Plastic Free Hale’iwa Campaign The Kokua Hawai’i Foundation is excited to be partnering with several Hale’iwa business owners on a new community project. 2008 will see the launch of Plastic Free Halei’wa, a community driven campaign that strives to educate stores, restaurants and patrons of Hale’iwa Town on the environmental and health benefits of going plastic free in order to minimize the consumption and pollution of plastics in our islands.
Our goal is to minimize the use of single use plastic items such as plastic bags, food take-out containers (including Styrofoam), plastic utensils, and water bottles. There are several cost effective alternatives to single-use plastics including reusable bags and bottles, compostable bags and foodwares. Let’s make Hale’iwa Town a successful example of how to go Plastic Free. By working together we can make a difference for our neighborhood, island and world. If you would like more information on going Plastic Free please click here. To join us in this effort, please email us. The film we are showing at 3pm this Sunday, Message in the Waves, inspired towns in the UK to become plastic shopping bag free.
