ʻO ka hapa nui o mākou makemake e hoʻolilo i kahi peni maikaʻi no nā hua hou, akā ʻike ʻia kēlā mau huaʻai a me nā huaʻai ke kumu kūʻai maoli paha ʻoe. hou aku i ka hopena: ʻAe ko ʻAmelika i ka hoʻolei ʻana i kahi ʻai $ 640 i kēlā me kēia makahiki, e like me kahi ana hou a ka American Chemistry Council (ACC). ʻOi aku ka maikaʻi, manaʻo paha mākou he haʻahaʻa, no ka mea, ua ʻōlelo nā helu aupuni o US ua kokoke i $900 o ka ʻai ʻai i kēlā me kēia hale. (E nānā i kēia mau ʻōlelo aʻoaʻo no ka mālama kālā.)

Ua noiʻi ka ACC i 1,000 mau mākua a ʻike ʻia he 76 ka nui o nā ʻohana e ʻōlelo nei e hoʻolei lākou i hoʻokahi meaʻai ma ka liʻiliʻi loa i hoʻokahi mahina, ʻoiai ʻoi aku ka hapalua e hoʻolei iā lākou i kēlā me kēia pule. A he 51 pākēneka e ʻae e kiola i ka meaʻai a lākou i kūʻai ai akā ʻaʻole i hoʻohana.

ʻOiai he mea makehewa loa kēlā-a ʻo ka-ʻoiaʻiʻo inā ʻai ʻoe i ke olakino, ke kūʻai aku nei ʻoe i nā huaʻai a me nā mea kanu hou e maikaʻi ʻole inā e lohi ʻoe i ke kuke ʻana a kūʻai paha iā lākou ma mua loa.

ʻO ka hapanui o mākou e hoʻāʻo a mālama i ka ʻōpala o ka meaʻai i kahi liʻiliʻi (he 96 ka nui haneli, e like me ka nānā ʻana). Akā ke waiho nei mākou i kahi ʻāpana o ka loli i kahi ʻōpala me kā mākou mau hana maikaʻi loa.

No laila pehea e hiki ai iā ʻoe ke mālama i ke kālā a hoʻohaʻahaʻa i ka nui o nā ʻōpala āu e pahu nei i nā landfill? No ka poʻe hoʻomaka, e hoʻohana i kēlā mau koena ma kahi o ke kiola ʻana iā lākou.
