I would like to know who the other unions are that are working with Sierra Club on the issue of ocean "farming" of salmon. Here in Hawaii we are told that sea farming will be a good economic engine for our depleted stocks of fish ---- and create more jobs. Our legislators in the state do not appear to be interested in hearing about any negatives either - when it came to ocean liners and dumping of waste around the islands it took years for any action on their trash practices. We have 4 major Wal-Marts on the island of Oahu - with another one being built. The Wal-Mart effect is here - and yet no word from our local press, and just some local union voices over the mega-stores. The issue of what is in the Wal-Mart - and how it remains so cheap - is a question that is VERY rarely asked by anyone who steps into the store. It should be the first question of a conscious person.
