Ironic, isn't it? The same people that will sing "They paved paradise to put up a parking lot", are also against any effective measures to prevent that turn of events.
You're inventing the image of a hypocrite based on very high-level stereotypes. When somebody opines, "The same people who...", it is in most cases a fallacious integration of things they have seen or heard into a single imagined type of human that is not highly represented in reality. Essentially a straw man. People can have different opinions about similar things without necessarily being hypocritical. In fact, declining to accuse "these people"/"those people"/"the same people" of this kind of hypocrisy is a great example of what is meant when we say that you should be "charitable" or "give the benefit of the doubt".
In this case it really is a case where people mindlessly advocate for more development but at the same time extol the virtues of Hawaii's natural beauty. Even in this thread there are people arguing for development while acknowledging the entire reason it's desirable is nature.
