Webinars placeholder image

Autumn Blum of Stream2Sea (USA) argues that reef safe sunscreen successfully address a true environmental concern. Dr. Heleen Kibbelaar of Science Meets Cosmetics (the Netherlands) argues the other side. IFSCC Chair of Education, Perry Romanowski is Moderator.

Attendees were asked to respond to a poll:  Do you believe that ‘reef safe’ sunscreens genuinely help protect the marine environment?  Yes or No?

The poll was repeated after the Debate to see which Debater had changed the most minds.

So before watching this webinar ask yourself the same question. Then see for yourself if you changed your mind after the debate.
