The Superpower of YOUth: Did you know that youth have superpowers? Dyson Chee, youth organizer in Hawaii, describes the journey of the Bill 40 victory on O’ahu/Honolulu, from his own experience. “If it weren’t for the youth that made a stand and voiced their opinion, Bill 40 would have never passed. The energy, passion, and hope that we brought with us, inspired the council members, who voted to pass Bill 40.”
Passed in December of 2019, Bill 40 is the strongest disposable plastic ban in the country, helping to prevent millions of tons of plastic waste per year from ending up in our oceans and beaches.
Check out the giant scroll covered with 1,500 youth signatures from across O’ahu, that supports a future without single use plastic.
