Invasive weed removal on Mauna Kea
#1
There was an effort to remove some of the weeds on Mauna Kea around the 9,000-foot level organized by the Office of Mauna Kea Management. They did a great job of clearing up a large area of invasive weeds.

Just curious if anyone knows if someone from the "protectors" also took part? Genuine question, facts rather than speculation or insults would be nice.

Also curious to know if invasives are springing up around the protest site, with all the foot and vehicle traffic.

fwiw, most up there didnt know much about native plants... and still dont!

they were trying to keep people form trampling invasives ie knotweed and fireweed.. yet didnt make much effort in "PROTECTING" an endemic critically endangered species that was being pulled from the trees on puu huluhulu and killed... the 'anunu vine (Sicyos Macrophyllus)...
