This mini documentary is mainly about the chemical oxybenzone. Oxybenzone is the active ingredient in most sunscreens. But it is also a hormone disruptor that mimics oestrogen in the body of humans, marine mammals and fish. It also is a prominent cause of coral death and bleaching worldwide. Oxybenzone is deathly to coral at concentrations equivalent to one drop diluted between 6 olympic size swimming pools.
Please watch this short video and inform yourself about the health and environmental impacts of oxybenzone. It’s only 11 minutes of your day.
