You do raise a valid concern regarding fire hazard. A&B needs to plant new crops as soon as possible, instead of just letting them go fallow. It wonʻt be a dust bowl, because invasive weeds will take over quickly. Just look at the fallow fields near the airport, or take a look at the old pineapple fields. They are full of weeds and trees, and there is no dust blowing around. However, if these weeds are allowed to grow and then dry up, they will indeed constitute a serious fire hazard. After the fires, we may have dust for a while until the invasive weeds take over again, but it will be temporary. 
As far as "balance," we need someone to speak up for our quality of life Upcountry. We need affordable housing for local residents, not vacation rentals. We need to pay our teachers a living wage. And yes, we need a representative who will prioritize people over corporate profits. This is the type of balance that is sorely lacking with our current state representative in House District 12.
