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 gay. and I think he's hot with or without a beard.
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!
A-FRICKIN-MEN!!!!!
Agreed. No doubt he is hands down yummy but, IMO it’s his absolute JOY for life & goofy sense of humor that makes him so beloved. Jason you are special & I’m so happy for your success! I’ve been a fan since in ‘Stargate Atlantis’...the early scene where you eat the mashed potatoes w your fingers still makes me cry w laughter 😂. Thanks for your infectious sense of JOY!
And a big old teddy bear who likes to make people laugh..... Lucky Lisa Bonet...
He does seem like a cool dude to hang with... no homo.

Spoiler: Tony carries a purse but insists it's just a fanny pack.
Same here
Far hotter without the beard.Suddenly his eyes are so more noticeable
I am a tomato and I think he should have died his beard red.
Will be interesting to see how BP reacts when his #metoo moment arrives .....

Sounds like you’re bi...
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)
Yep.
That's where I have to draw the line. He cannot shave his head. EVER
I agree!!!!! He's beautiful!!!!
I like him more WITHOUT the beard. Beards...not my thing.
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.
Some people do this crazy thing where they clean themselves.
I remember reading that faecal matter was found in beards too.
Exactly. I wouldn’t want to eat anything that was filtered through the hair on my head. And smells! Ick.
A lot of people don't want to put effort into beard maintenance, I assume that's where the high amount of germs comes into.
Ugh, same here. I wish they would go back out of style. Desperately.
Jason makes a beard look GOOOOOD!!!
