Protecting oceans and coastlines requires more than occasional cleanups. It also calls for greater public awareness, community involvement, and efforts to change the habits that contribute to plastic pollution. Sustainable Coastlines Hawaiʻi has highlighted Jason Momoa’s support for this work, describing him as a champion in the fight against plastic pollution.
The relationship between Momoa and Sustainable Coastlines Hawaiʻi has included public advocacy as well as fundraising. The organization pointed to his appearance on the Ellen Show, where he helped raise money for SCH by throwing axes at water bottles. It also emphasized his speech at the United Nations, where he called for action on climate change and its impact on Pacific Island Nations.
