Protect Mauna Kea
What’s Wrong With These Pictures?
Hawai’i Governor David Ige announcing his support for the $1.4 billion Thirty meter Telescope (TMT) construction on the sacred mountain of Mauna Kea
University of Hawaii President David Lassner and UH Hilo Chancellor Donald Straney
announcing their support for the $1.4 billion TMT construction on the sacred mountain of Mauna Kea

Please note the backdrop for the Governor’s announcement is the State seal with the words of King Kamehameha III – “Ua mau ke ea o ka ‘aina i ka pono – The life/sovereignty of the land is perpetuated in righteousness.” The backdrop for the UH officials is what appears to be a mural of Hawaiian hula dancers.
A more accurate backdrop for the above photos would be a very large $ sign.
Where’s the Righteousness?
Where’s the Respect for the Sacred?
Shame: Putting Dollars Before the Sacred! Using Hawaiians as a Prop!
NO TMT! No New Master Lease! All Telescopes Dismantled by 2033
when the current lease expires.
