RESOLUTION REGARDING

FLUORIDATION OF PUBLIC WATER

  WHEREAS, fluoridation chemicals have not been approved as safe and effective by the Food and Drug Administration for introduction into food products for consumption;

 

WHEREAS, introduction of fluoridation chemicals into the water supply will result in the accumulation of fluorides on properties of commercial farmers who utilize water from the county water systems.  These fluoride compounds are considered hazardous waste and daily addition of these compounds via the public water system to commercial farming properties are of concern;

 

Now therefore, be it resolved that Hawaii Organic Farmers Association opposes the addition of fluoride to Hawaii’s water and supports any legislation to permanently ban fluoridation of the water supply.
