I write with grave concern regarding the emergence of factory octopus farms
planning experiments on octopus breeding, confinement and slaughter using ice
baths at -3 degrees Celsius. Immediate action is vital to prevent these farms
from considering Hawaii, as nonindigenous octopus could escape, posing a threat
to our biodiversity.

The additional waste generated would exacerbate damage to our already suffering
coral reefs. It’s crucial to understand that such farming doesn’t address hunger
but caters to high-end consumption. I urge authorities to swiftly ban these
practices in Hawaii, prioritizing environmental preservation over short-term
gains.

experiencing such cruelty and safeguard Hawaii.
