Hawaii became the first state in the nation to begin enacting ban on the sale of sunscreens containing coral harming chemicals.
Hawaii Gov. David Ige signed the legislation on Tuesday, but it won't become effective until 2021.
The chemicals, oxybenzone and octinoxate, are believed by scientists to be toxic to coral reefs. The chemicals are in the majority of sunscreen products.
