I think a big part of it is “benzene”, but people also seem to lack understanding that there are many different types of sunscreens.
Some are physical (zinc), some are chemical, some are a combination and even the chemical filters are all different.
There are different sunscreens available in each country depending on their laws, like Japan allowing different filters to make it look better, Australia not allowing most of the new chemical filters because it might ruin the coral reefs etc.
One article saying one product in one country was recalled because of a cancer risk does not mean all sunscreen causes cancer lol
The only thing I’ve ever seen as a “known carcinogen” is benzene and it’s an FDA warning about concentrations being too high in some sunscreens.
