Hawaii ban on sunscreen


     Hawaii signed a ban on Tuesday, July 3rd to ban sunscreen containing chemicals that have been extremely harmful to the coral reefs. The bill is set to go into effect, January 1, 2021. Distribution and use of sunscreen with oxybenzone and octinoxate will be fully prohibited. Haereticus Environmental Laboratory found the chemicals to be bleaching, deforming and even causing death in coral when the chemicals are washed off beachgoers.

Here's your sunscreen alternatives:
