“Monsanto scares me,” said Trisha Kehaulani Watson of Honua Consulting.

Watson shared her perspective in a panel discussion titled “Monsanto in Hawai‘i” that took place last week Wednesday at the Hawai‘inuiākea Center for Hawaiian Studies.

The panel was organized by English professor Cynthia Franklin in response to the many private and public responses she got regarding her statement in Ka Leo’s story “Seed giant Monsanto funds C TA HR students.”

Franklin said the panel discussion was meant to be a start to dialogue on a topic that has turned out to inspire strong emotions for many.

“I am very happy that the panelists and audience members were able to address so many issues that are crucial to understanding Monsanto’s presence at UH and in Hawai‘i. After all, this is not a twosided but multi-faceted topic that concerns issues such as food safety and availability; the relationship between research and ethics; the ongoing occupation of Hawaiian land; and the effects profit-driven corporations have on educational institutions, people and the environment,” said Franklin.

Franklin’s statements about Monsanto and her suspicion about the company’s large donations to College of Tropical Agriculture and Human Resources in the Oct. 11 article initiated a series of letters to the editor, as well as a barrage of personal emails that were highly critical of her standpoint.

Chairman of Tropical Plant & Soil Sciences Robert E. Paull and Professor Ania Wieczorek of CTAHR, two vocal opponents of Franklin’s position, declined to participate in the panel. Wieczorek declined on the grounds that she was not a representative of Monsanto and the focus of the panel was not clear. Furthermore, “CTAHR supports and conducts research of all types of agricultural technologies to address diverse needs in Hawai‘i.

Monsanto and the future of agriculture from front page

Native Hawaiian Student Scholar Brown Bag Series Presented by The Kohala Center and Hawai‘inuiākea School of Hawaiian Knowledge Dr. Kamana Beamer and Dr. Jonathan Osorio

Peoples’ conceptions place and nature affect their relationship with the world and their constructions of landscape. A look at how the ali‘i of Hawai‘i dealt with foreign influences gives insight to their world-view regarding changes to the land system following the illegal overthrow of the Hawaiian monarchy in 1893.

Joined by mentor, Professor of Hawaiian Studies Dr. Jonathan Osorio, Mellon Hawai‘i Postdoctorial Fellow Kamana Beamer reflects on his academic path, gives insight to his research, and speaks about what gives him inspiration for the work he does.

Date: Friday, January 27, 2012 Time:: 12:30-2:30 Place: Kamakakūokalani, Hālau o Haumea Hosted by: The Dean Student Advisory Board of Hawai‘inuiākea School of Hawaiian Knowledge

My policies are to provide educational opportunities that address surrounding genetic engineering and agriculture, rather than to adopt a particular stance in a debate environment, where I do not have an opportunity to offer balanced perspectives,” she said, in a statement read by Franklin at the panel.

Without representatives from CTAHR, the event was not a debate. Instead, the panel featured anti-GMO leaders who spoke extensively on past struggles to prevent the genetic modification of taro. Although the panel discussion was held at 7 on a weeknight, nearly 100 people showed up to listen to a two-hour discussion featuring Watson, Kamuela Enos of Ma‘o Organic Farms and long time Moloka‘i activist Walter Ritte. Professor Jon Osorio moderated.

The panel also discussed the future of agriculture in Hawai‘i, covering topics including monocropping, the cultural significance of kalo (taro) to Hawaiians,

Q A

: CAN YOU TALK TO ME ABOUT YOUR BOOK “PLASTIC OCEAN”?

: MOSTLY, THE BOOK IS ABOUT MY DISCOVERY OF THE GREAT PACIFIC PLASTIC PATCH AND THE IMPLICATIONS OF LIVING IN THE PLASTIC AGE. PLASTIC IS ACTING AS OUR PREDATOR AND PREY. ITʼS TANGLING THINGS UP AND KILLING THEM AS PREDATOR. ITʼS ALSO PREY, AS JUST ABOUT EVERY KIND OF ANIMAL IN THE OCEAN GETS FOOLED INTO EATING PLASTIC.

IN TERMS OF OUR BEACH DEBRIS, ITʼS WASHING UP IN TERMS OF PLASTIC SAND. BUT WE ARE MAKING A LITTLE PROGRESS. YOUʼVE GOT PLASTIC-FREE KAILUA, KOKUA HAWAIʻI WITH THEIR ANTI-PLASTIC CAMPAIGN. … THEREʼS A LOT OF FOLKS THINKING ABOUT IT.

Q A

: YOU MENTIONED PLASTIC SAND. WHAT IS THAT?

: PLASTIC SAND IS THE NEW SAND. FORMERLY, WE GOT SAND BY BEACH WAVES AND ROCKS GRINDING : WOULD YOU SAY THE DOWN CORAL AND SHELLS. NOW THEYʼRE DAMAGE PLASTIC CAUSES GRINDING DOWN OUR TRASH AND MAKTO HAWAIʻI IS MAINLY ING COLORFUL SAND. YOU CAN SEE IT IN IN TERMS OF WILDLIFE? KAILUA, WAIMĀNALO, YOU CAN SEE IT ON THE BIG ISLAND. … YOU CAN SEE IT AT ALL OVER THE WORLDʼS BEACHES. : IT ALSO FALLS ON HAWAIIANS THEMSELVES, WITH THE DIABE: IN TERMS OF THE TSUTES AND OBESITY PROBLEMS IN NAMI DEBRIS IN JAPAN, HAWAIʻI. ITʼS NOT ALL JUST DIET AND THERE IS A SENSE OF EXERCISE – ITʼS ALSO THE CHEMICALS INEVITABILITY, BUT IS THERE IN PLASTIC. BISPHENOL A, WHICH IS ONE OF THE MOST COMMON CHEMICALS, SOMETHING PEOPLE HERE IN HAWAIʻI CAN DO? IS IN A LOT OF PLASTIC AND IS AN OBESEGIN. ITʼS AFFECTING THE HEALTH OF HAWAIIAN PEOPLE. … ITʼS NOT WELL : THEY CAN PUT PRESSURE TO KNOWN AND ITʼS NOT BEEN EXPOSED, CHANGE THE ATTITUDE ABOUT BUT ITʼS PREVALENT. PLASTIC IN THE OCEAN. RIGHT

Q A

Q A

NOW, THE ATTITUDE OF THE GOVERNMENT IS THAT THE WORST THING THAT CAN HAPPEN IS AN OIL SPILL. THE RESPONSE IS THERE: YOUʼVE GOT EMERGENCY CREWS, BOATS IN THE HARBOR IN HONOLULU – IF THEREʼS AN OIL SPILL, : WELL, IʼVE SEEN CHANGES IN BOOM, THEYʼRE ON IT. BUT IF THEREʼS A THE OCEAN THATʼS GETTING A LOT PLASTIC SPILL AND A BUNCH OF DEBRIS WORSE. IT USED TO BE [A RATIO OF] IN THE OCEAN, THEREʼS NO RESPONSE. SIX TO ONE, PLASTIC TO PLANKTON; NOW, … WE SHOULD PUT HIGHER PRIORITY ON ITʼS 36 TO ONE, PLASTIC TO PLANKTON. CLEANING UP TSUNAMI DEBRIS.

Q A

: YOU DISCOVERED THE PATCH IN 1997. HAVE YOU SEEN ANY CHANGES IN PLASTIC AWARENESS?

Q

: AS YOUNG COLLEGE STUDENTS, THERE IS A TENDENCY TO FOCUS ON THE NOW AND NOT HAVE MUCH SENSE OF FUTURE RESPONSIBILITY. WHAT CAN WE DO TO GALVANIZE OUR PEERS INTO ACTION?

A

: I THINK YOU HAVE TO UNPLUG YOURSELVES FROM THE RAT RACE OF THE CONSUMER SOCIETY. BEING THE FIRST ONE ON THE BLOCK TO HAVE THE LATEST IPAD, KINDLE OR ANDROID DOESNʼT MAKE YOU THE BEST PERSON. THATʼS JUST MAKING YOU A POOR, IMPOVERISHED STUDENT BECAUSE YOUʼVE GOT ALL THESE STUDENT LOANS. THIS DEGREE IS SUPPOSED TO GET YOU A JOB AT A HIGH-PAYING COMPANY, AND THATʼS NOT HAPPENING. PEOPLE ARE WAITING AND WAITING AND, [IN THE] MEANTIME, WORKING AT STARBUCKS OR SOME RESTAURANT. THINK ABOUT REDUCING YOUR CONSUMPTION AND SAVING YOUR MONEY. THINK ABOUT WHATʼS GOING INTO YOUR BRAIN RATHER THAN WHATʼS PLAYING IN FRONT OF YOUR EYES.

Q A

: WERE YOU INTERESTED IN THESE TOPICS BEFORE YOU DISCOVERED THE PATCH IN 1997?

: IN 1967 TO 1968, I WAS AN ANTIWAR ACTIVIST FIGHTING AGAINST THE VIETNAM WAR. IʼVE BEEN A STUDENT ACTIVIST FOR ALMOST 50 YEARS, YOU KNOW? BUT I STILL HAD THE SAME INTEREST IN JUSTICE, FREEDOM AND SELF DETERMINATION AND DISENGAGING FROM RECURSIVE ASPECTS OF OUR SOCIETY.

The utilization of online review forums in order to generate more positive press – or converseWWW.KALEO.ORG

The Internet has catapulted business into the modern era.

Every individual company’s success now hinges on its ability to manage e-commerce. Companies are being pushed by market forces to adopt unorthodox strategies to separate themselves from the competition.

W hen people surfing online are moving through the planning phases of making a purchase, they often do product research on sites such as Yelp, Citysearch and Google Places.

These sites’ main purpose is to provide hundreds or more reviews from former customers, and some companies are reacting creatively to appear that they are above the competition.

If a company is looking to embellish records of customer satisfaction, it has seemingly zero barriers to begin writing positive

reviews about itself. Some business owners have even admitted to outsourcing the task of writing hundreds of positive reviews for their companies. On the negative side, companies go to great lengths to have libelous reviews written for their competitors.

Gone Hunt-ing: new season, new leaders Last season, Steven Hunt played in the shadows of A llA mericans Jonas Umlauft and Josh Walker.

But after Umlauft returned to Germany and Walker ex-

hausted his eligibility, Hunt emerged as Hawai‘i’s go-to player.

“His instinct is still to try to go really fast,” head coach Charlie Wade said. “Being the go-to guy means that you have to slow down.

The ball gets set higher and you have to make decisions hitting g off the block. He’s embracing it – he’s doing a nice job.”

A nd not only is Hunt Hawai‘i’s kill leader, but a senior and one of the Warriors’ three captains.

“It’s a new role for him, and it really means a lot for him to play at a high level and for this

team to do well,” Wade said.

Sophomore setter and floor captain Sam Biscaro echoed Wade.

“He’s doing a great job,” Biscaro said. “He’s working a lot on making sure that we’re playing p aying together.. pl It shows when ever ybody ’s clicking.”

And clicking isn’t something that the Warriors have been doing recently, dropping their last four matches in a row. w But through

Hunt’s leadership, Hawai‘i looks to bounce back.

“I’d like to say [my leadership style is] both [vocal and leading by example],” Hunt said.

“I’m “I I ’m trying to fill in for the leadership that we lost last year. I like to lead by example and still keep the guys engaged.”

Hunt leads the Warrior offense with 3.96 kills per set and also adds 0.75 digs per set and 0.52 blocks per set.

WARRIORS RETURN HOME

Hunt and the Warriors (25, 1-3 Mountain Pacific Sports Federation) will return home to host Grand Canyon Universit Universityy out of the Midwestern Intercollegiate Volleyball Association.

A lthough the L opes (5 -3) are generally members at the Division II level, the men’s volleyball team belongs to the MI VA , which includes teams like L ewis and Ohio State.

Sophomore outside hitter Ben Ponnet and junior outside hitter Jordon Tarantino, who average over 3.5 kills per set each, lead Grand Canyon.

NIK SEU/ KA LEO O HAWAI‘I

Senior outside hitter Steven Hunt is one of two Canadians on the Warrior volleyball team.

He is also one of three captains and leads the Warriors offensively with 3.96 kills per set.
