There's a picture of a "heat response team" and their shirts are dark red. Hasn't anyone heard of wearing white to reflect the sun ?

- debian3 3y ago“The color of your clothing can affect how well it protects you from UV rays. Dark or bright colors, including red, black and navy blue, absorb more UV rays than lighter colors like whites and pastels. For example, an everyday white cotton T-shirt has a UPF of only about 5. As a rule of thumb, the more intense the hue, the better protection the clothing will provide.” Source: https://www.skincancer.org/blog/dress-to-protect-5-things-that-affect-how-well-your-clothes-block-uv-rays/#:~:text=Color%3A%20The%20color%20of%20your,UPF%20of%20only%20about%205 https://www.skincancer.org/blog/dress-to-protect-5-things-th....
