Purpose & Objectives

Polystyrene foam (commonly referred to as "styrofoam") food service-ware products pose a significant and substantial threat upon Hawaii's environment, given its inherent non-biodegradable nature.

Styrofoam also poses a threat to the health and general welfare of Hawaii's citizens, given its chemical composition.

The purpose of Stop Styrofoam Hawaii is:

  • to provide information to the public concerning proposals to ban styrofoam food service-ware products in the State

  • to facilitate public participation in the political process to prohibit the use of polystyrene foam as a disposable food service-ware product.
