Creating sunscreen products is both resource-intensive and has an environmental impact. On the one hand from the manufacturing process, where resources are required to produce raw materials, manufacture the product itself and its packaging, but also from the logistics chain with all its transport and emissions. But something that may not be considered is that these products also have an impact on the environment during and after we have used them. In particular, aquatic organisms and their ecosystems are at risk of being affected because some of the product we use ends up in the water - when we swim, shower after the beach or when we wash clothes and towels with residual sunscreen.
