This month we are excited to welcome Autumn Blum, Cosmetic Chemist & CEO, Stream2Sea. Coral reefs are among the most vibrant and biodiverse ecosystems on Earth, but they are increasingly threatened by human activity. While a large number of companies are labeling their sunscreens as "reef safe", they are doing so without thoroughly testing the ingredients for their effects on coral reefs and marine life.

The class is 2 hours and is free, and held at:
