While traveling to Hawaii, he handed out bottles of Mananalu and brought\nawareness to his company&#8217;s mission to eliminate single-use plastic water\nbottles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;I started Mananalu to give people a better option than single-use plastic and create a wave of positive change,&#8221; Momoa shared. &#8220;For every bottle of Mananalu sold, we remove one bottle of plastic from ocean-going waste.&#8221; The company calls the impact program <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/reel\/Cgxr1luAd1T\/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link\">Drink One, Remove One<\/a>, made possible through their partnership with leading plastic-offset organization rePurpose Global.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In April, Hawaii&#8217;s hometown airline began distributing Mananalu&#8217;s\n16-ounce aluminum bottle to Premium Cabin guests on all U.S. East Coast and\ninternational flights. The recyclable product also replaced plastic water\nbottles sold on Hawaiian&#8217;s Pau Hana snack cart on the carrier&#8217;s flights between\nHawaii and its 16 continental U.S. gateway cities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Mananalu is on a mission to make the earth a better place\nfor future generations. Together, Mananalu and Hawaiian Airlines anticipate\neliminating hundreds of thousands of plastic bottles from oceans and waterways\neach year. In the first two months of this partnership, over 35,000 pieces of\nplastic waste have already been removed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For Momoa, the partnership represents a concept that came\nfull circle. He was on a flight when the idea for Mananalu started, as he found\nhimself surrounded by single-use plastic water bottles but noticed that the\nsoda, beer, and juice were all in aluminum cans. That&#8217;s when the &#8216;aha&#8217; moment\nhappened. &#8216;Why can&#8217;t we just package water in aluminum instead of plastic?&#8217; he\nthought. So, he did. And Mananalu was born. &#8220;Being able to serve it now is\na dream coming true. And I&#8217;m so proud of Hawaiian Airlines for being the first\nairline to partner with Mananalu,&#8221; Momoa concludes.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Recently, Jason Momoa surprised a cabin of passengers on a Hawaiian Airlines flight to his home state of Hawaii. &#8220;Aloha kakahiaka.
