Why
I first viewed the Great Barrier Reef in all of its colours in 2004. In 2018 I re-visited the Great Barrier Reef to re-live some of those memories. What I found resembled more of a graveyard - the coral was bleached, the sea life was dissipating and I was undeniably deflated. What had occurred over the past fifteen years to turn this once eye-catching organism to a dull grey? Where had all the life gone? This kicked off an interest in the causes behind coral bleaching. It didn't take long to discover that bleaching is a stress response to the rising temperatures and high concentrations of toxic chemicals found in ocean waters surrounding the reef. Two chemicals in particular, oxybenzone & octinoxate, cause adverse affects in coral at around 60 parts per trillion and are found in almost all commercially available sunscreens. They're so bad in-fact that Hawaii banned the use of sunscreens containing these chemicals in July of 2018 with Palau following suit. As more research is conducted, more and more chemicals have been added to the list of known substances harmful to reefs. Further, baby coral feeds by ingesting nano-meter sized organics. With the amount of micro plastics found in our oceans increasing, it is becoming more and more difficult for coral to mature before choking on plastic. Every day, thousands of people are lathering up completely unaware of the potential health risks chemical based sunscreens pose to themselves, as well as the reef networks they're excited to experience. Soul Good Sunscreen is an environmentally friendly sunscreen that slots straight into beauty and skincare routine that is better for both people and the earth. It is a truly sea-life & reef safe, biodegradable and sustainable product where profits go towards preventing plastics from ever reaching the ocean. By purchasing this product, you are protecting your skin, revealing your inner radiance and voting with your dollar for a brighter and cleaner future.
