Average men shave off their beards every day and no one cares. But when a man as spectacular as Jason Momoa decides to forgo facial hair, it’s a thing.

The “Aquaman” star posted a video of him shaving off the beard on YouTube with the caption, “Goodbye DROGO, AQUAMAN, DECLAN, BABA! I’m shaving this beast off, it’s time to make a change.” After bidding adieu to some of his famous characters, he said, “A change for the better…for my kids, for your kids, the world.”

Mr. Lisa Bonet shaved his beard to bring attention to the plastics that are killing our planet. Instead, he’s advocating that people switch to recyclable aluminum.

Nothing that monumental comes without a Twitter response. Some applauded Jason’s care for the environment, while others were upset about it. As one person said, “Jason Momoa just shaved his beard off and now nothing makes sense in this world.” Check out some of the other responses below:
