Wisdom, aloha are being ignored by government

I am a #kanakascientist. I am Hawaiian and a scientist. I am a scientist — not by choice, but by nature. My ancestors were pure scientists — they observed their environment and were proficient in astronomy, physical oceanography, marine biology, aquaculture, agriculture, architecture, evolutionary biology, and so much more. I follow in their footsteps. I observe, I question, I experiment and I innovate — to better understand and explain the place that I am from, to develop deeper connections to that place, to decode the why behind practices that malama that place, to protect the resiliency of that wahi, and to help steward that wahi into the future for all the mo‘opuna that follow.
