We learned a lot living in Hawaii during the COVID-19 pandemic, mainly the profound beauty Mother Earth will provide if left undisturbed. With tourism halted, the islands and the ocean had the chance to rejuvenate. Watching the animals thrive undisturbed was a sign that taking care of the earth now is more than vital; it is a requirement. The production of plastic occurs using fossil fuels. Only a small portion of plastic is recycled. Instead, much of the product’s elimination happens by incineration, adding pollution to our environment. If not incinerated, it is dumped, often into rivers and oceans, where it will slowly break down, releasing greenhouse gasses along the way.
Actor Jason Momoa is determined to help you eliminate single-use plastic bottles with his new product, Mananalu. The Hawaiian native’s Mananalu water is Certified Plastic Negative and Climate Neutral. The purified water is infused with electrolytes and sold in a BPA-free, recyclable, resealable aluminum bottle. It is available in flavors like lilikoi passion, Tahitian lime, or crystal clean and pure. And, for every bottle sold, the company removes the equivalent of one plastic bottle from the environment through its work with rePurpose Global. Mananalu comes from the Hawaiian words mana and nalu, which mean “sacred spirit of life” and “a powerful wave that pushes across the ocean.” Now is the time to become that environmental wave for the world.
