do any of you read though the whole article?

"But before we ban sunscreens, we must first determine if local ambient concentrations of sunscreens are positively correlated with coral bleaching events."

Danovaro says banning sunscreen won't be necessary, and points out two simple things swimmers can do to reduce their impact on coral: Use sunscreens with physical filters, which reflect instead of absorb ultraviolet radiation; and use eco-friendly chemical sunscreens.

Sunscreen is for wusses that are afraid of water. Preventing skin cancer? You won't get skin cancer when you're in the water!

FYI: water actually reflects the sunlight and basically multiplies how fast u get burned... so if ur in or by water u will get burned faster.

i cant believe it took them this long to do a study on this... really doesn't surprise me.

Because all of the rest of the crap that gets dumped in Mother Earth's ocean doesn't hurt the corral.
