Mananalu is a new canned water brand from Jason Momoa that is passionate about intentionally packaging water in aluminum. This proves to be an eco-friendly alternative to plastic which can take up to 1,000 years to degrade. The brand's name, Mananalu, is a representation of "the unstoppable wave of change that is coming" thanks to a shift in consciousness. Truly, a wide range of companies and consumers are committing to minimizing the amount of plastic that ends up in the waste stream and often the world's bodies of water.
The brand brings attention to mind-boggling facts like: "By 2050, the ocean is expected to contain more plastic than fish by weight." To bring awareness to single-use plastic water bottles and his new brand, Momoa shaved his signature beard.
