Why use natural sunscreen?
Regular sunscreen often contains a chemical called “Oxybenzone”. This chemical (along with many other chemicals) is highly toxic to coral reefs and marine life. Only the smallest amount of Oxybenzone will cause coral to bleach and eventually die.
About 14,000 tons of sunscreen ends up in the water around coral reefs every year (source: National Geo Graphic).
Switching to natural sunscreen is a better way to protect yourself from the sun, and does not harm or pollute the oceans.
