In Honolulu, the Ala Wai Canal is an artificial waterway that has been polluted by trash, mud and runoff for decades. The Genki Ala Wai project is working to make the canal swimmable in 2026 by treating it with Effective Microorganisms delivered in mud balls. Wildlife has already been spotted returning.

Effective Microorganisms have a track record of clearing pollution. They improved the water in the Dōtonbori River and Osaka Bay in Japan between 2003 to 2006. The Genki Ala Wai project holds events where volunteers make Genki balls from mud and microorganisms to toss into the canal.
