Put opala in its place. Taking care of opala (the Hawaiian word for garbage) is everyones business. The trash generated by homes and businesses is called “solid waste,” and the Citys Department of Environmental Services, Refuse Division manages the collection, disposal and recycling operations. Its the ENVs job to provide an islandwide waste management system that protects our environment and operates efficiently to minimize costs to island residents and businesses. Its everyones job to know how to properly dispose of or recycle the waste materials you generate, when to set out your garbage for collection, how to contain it so it doesnt spill in the street, what and where to recycle. The City Department of Environmental Services uses waste-to-energy (H-POWER), recycling, composting to reduce the need for landfill. We evaluate emerging technologies that could further reduce our reliance on landfills. Please do your part to put opala in its place. Its our island, our home and our responsibility to protect the health and beauty of the environment.
