Up to 6,600 tons of sunscreen wash into coastal waters each year. That’s bad news for swimmers, who end up unprotected from the sun—and also for fish.

It kills phytoplankton that nourish fish and, ultimately, the rest of the foodchain. It doesn’t mean that people shall wear less sunscreen. The solution is for producers to create eco-friendly substitutes. For more than a decade, sunscreen makers have been on the hunt for a new chemical formula that hardly leaves a trace. —— end ——
