what? UV radiation is clearly bad in anything more than enough-to-get-enough-vitamin-D doses.
depending on where you are in the world, sunblock might be enough to keep you on the good side, elsewhere (e.g. Australia) there are elaborate cultural rituals to reduce radiation exposure to safe levels (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slip-Slop-Slap https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slip-Slop-Slap).

- strken 3y agoThe link between wearing long sleeves, sunscreen, and a hat when outdoors for any length of time in high UV environments (e.g. anywhere near the hole in the ozone layer when it's not midwinter) and "how disconnected from reality parts of contemporary Western culture have become" is tenuous at best.
