Problem
Sunburn risk
Nature:
Only a fraction of adults can accurately assess the risk of sunburn. People with pale skin which tends not to tan are most at risk from UV radiation. But even those with black skin are at some risk from prolonged exposure to very high UV levels. The elderly are most at risk as they are least likely to understand warnings about high UV levels and sunburn risk.
