Tell us a little about yourself \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n
I’m Estelle Camail, I work at Avril on the company’s sustainable development strategy. I was one of the people who made the selection of nonprofits we donated to in 2023 as part of our commitment to 1% for the Planet.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Why is our cause so important to you?<\/p>\n
Even though our business is not directly linked to the oceans, we felt it was important to contribute to saving them, given the essential role they play on a global scale and the urgency of the situation.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Why did your company, Avril Cosm\u00e9tiques, decide to make a commitment to coral ecosystems?<\/p>\n
At Avril, many of us are aware of environmental issues. In 2023, we had a major internal debate on the impact of our sunscreens on the marine environment and how to minimize it. In line with this, when selecting nonprofits, we were keen to help a coral protection nonprofit, and Coral Guardian seemed to us the perfect candidate for this!<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
How do you put this commitment into practice?<\/p>\n
We have had our sunscreen formulas tested on coral reefs, and we are working to limit our packaging, especially plastic. We’ve also joined 1% for the Planet to help protect the environment.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
What worries you most about the current state of our oceans?<\/p>\n
Pollution linked to human activities, and above all the colossal quantities of plastic that end up in the oceans, with disastrous consequences for marine environments and biodiversity.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
What gives you hope?<\/p>\n
I have the impression that people are talking about these issues more and more, and I hope that this will lead to a real awareness. The concrete actions carried out by Coral Guardians to restore coral ecosystems in Indonesia also give us hope!<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Tell us about an experience or memory in the ocean.<\/p>\n
Last year, while on vacation in Brittany, we decided to cross from Quiberon to Belle Ile by catamaran rather than ferry. On the way back, the boat took a detour to pick up a large piece of net floating in the water. I’m glad this kind of initiative is growing.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
