In the Hawaiian language maluhia means "peace" or "peaceful passage". Maluhia Group is a coalition of Waimea Canyon Middle School staff, parents and community members concerned with the use of pesticide, and the agriculture of GMO crops on lands adjacent WCMS campus. This blog was created as a community forum and database to provide information about incidents of pesticide exposure to Waimea students/staff and community as well as the adverse health effects of pesticides and GMO agriculture.
About Us
Maluhia Group was formed in response to a complete failure of public agencies responsible for the regulation, monitoring, and protection of the public’s health and welfare in relation to pesticide use and G.M.O. agriculture on lands adjacent WCMS campus. State agencies have acted in an extemporaneous, insufficient, negligent manner in investigating multiple incidents of pesticide exposure as the result of drift on WCMS campus. Maluhia Group seeks legislative action creating pesticide free buffer zones, strict guidelines for pesticide use, including liability for drift, misuse and any ill health effects caused by G.M.O agricultural practices.
