The sun's damaging effects.
Many people find exposure to the sunlight enjoyable and relaxing. In fact, most people agree that a tan looks great. For years, sunlight has been viewed as beneficial to one's well-being both emotionally and physically (Ness, Frankel, Gunnell, & Smith, 1999). However, exposure to ultraviolet radiation has its drawbacks. Sunlight is responsible for wrinkling, blotching, drying, and leathering of skin. In fact, 90% of all skin cancers result from long-term exposure to ultraviolet radiation. It is important to be educated about the effects of ultraviolet radiation and learn to balance its beneficial effects with its negative effects.
