Hawaii ships over 20,000 tons of trash per year, contributing to ocean pollution and threats to native species. The state already has an incinerator that processes 3000 tons of waste daily, generating 8% of Oahu's energy. Building a larger, cleaner incinerator could reduce shipped waste and trash in oceans/beaches by processing more waste and generating energy.
2. Pain
•The state of Hawaii ships out over 20 thousand
tons of trash each year.
•Ocean pollution.
•Native and Endangered species
3. • The state of Hawaii already has an incinerator that processes up to
3000 tons of waste per day.
• The facility generates up to 90 megawatts of energy per day
(About 8% of Oahu’s energy need)
• Building another bigger clean incinerator would reduce the amount of
waste we ship out and decrease the amount of trash in the
ocean/beaches
