Reef-Safe Isn't Optional Anymore - What Every Instructor Should Know About Protecting Our Blue Planet
Presented by Autumn Blum, WDHOF Member, Chemist & CEO of Stream2Sea
As dive instructors, we teach respect for the ocean—but what if the products we use and recommend are truly harming the ecosystems we love? In this eye-opening session, Autumn Blum—formulator, eco-activist, and founder of Stream2Sea—dives into the science behind what "reef-safe" really means. You’ll learn how common ingredients in sunscreens, personal care products and even mask defog can affect coral reefs, marine life, and water quality, and why “reef-safe” labeling is often misleading. Backed by real-world toxicity testing and years of advocacy, this talk will empower you with the knowledge to make informed choices, educate your students, and take meaningful action. Whether you're running a dive center or teaching your next open water class, you'll walk away with practical tools and insights to become a more impactful ocean educator.
