UV Rays are a real potential threat to human beings. Though the sun provides the possibilities and wonders of life possible down here on earth, its power is also a source of danger to humans. Humans, with exposed skin, are at risk of developing skin cancer and skin damage from prolonged contact with harmful UV rays. UV actually stands for ultraviolet. You have probably heard the term “ultraviolet light” more than a few times in your life. What does it mean? Well, the sun has two types of ultraviolet rays: ultraviolet A (UVA) and ultraviolet B. UVA rays are those capable of penetrating glass surfaces and windows. Most windshields are specially designed to resist these rays, but the other windows on a vehicle are not, nor are most windows on homes and at businesses. UVA rays are longer than UVB rays. Research in American dermatology suggests that the left side of faces and bodies seem to suffer from more skin damage than the right side and it is believed to be linked to UVA rays penetrating the side windows on vehicles. Over exposure to the sun’s rays likely account for about 90 percent of all melanoma (skin cancer) cases.
