The Genki Ala Wai Project involves shaping and tossing genki balls into the Ala Wai Canal to improve water quality by eating sludge. Since 2019, hundreds have participated in this environmental cleanup effort. However, recent volunteer turnout has dropped by 70%, possibly due to a study suggesting the genki balls are ineffective.
