Bidding farewell to the various bearded characters he has played, Momoa is shown trimming up with an electric razor while in a remote desert location. He also takes the time to show us some canned beverages which turn out to be water, because shaving in the desert is thirsty work. He delivers a salutary message about recycling and not using plastic bottles and voila, the beard is gone.

“I just want to do this to bring awareness that plastics are ruining our planet, and I think I have a solution,” he said. “I don’t want to bitch about it. There’s only one thing that can really help our planet and save our planet as long as we recycle, and that’s aluminum. It’s 100 percent recyclable.”

Amazing. Of course, it’s not the first time that facial hair has been used to promote good causes, both ‘No Shave November‘ and ‘Movember‘ encourage men to do the opposite of Momoa, and grow it out for awareness, in these cases men’s health.

“I’m shaving this beast off, it’s time to make a change,” Momoa continues. “A change for the better…for my kids, your kids, the world. Let’s make a positive change for the health of our planet.”

“Let’s clean up our oceans, our land. Join me on this journey. Let’s make the switch to infinitely recyclable aluminum.”

A nice message, but judging from the comments however, most of the focus was on the actor’s looks and how ‘distraught’ people are. What do you think? Are cans a better alternative to plastic bottles? Would you pay a few cents extra to reduce your plastic consumption in this way? How else can we go about ensuring less plastic ends up in our oceans? Let us know your opinion about plastic waste reduction in the comments!

I'm not gay and I think he is hot with and without the beard. Its the personality not the face. The man is an awesome guy!
Load More Replies...He could do anything....shave his whole head....grow out alllll his hair....let a 2 year old cut it....and he would still be the sexiest man alive! (in my eyes)
In the UK news recently there was an article about the germs in beards - being in close proximity to the mouth they have a lot more germs there than the hair anywhere else. Literally anywhere else. The reason for the study was an MRI machine was being used for dogs and people and some medicos were worried that patients would get something unpleasant from dogs... Apparently not. Dogs need to be worried they'd get something unpleasant from humans.
