Did you know...?

With summer fast approaching as we reach the high 70s... Did you know that Uruguay is reasonably close to the hole in the ozone? This is because there is less ozone not only in the "hole" of the ozone but around it as well. So, this makes the sun more dangerous in that one's skin is taking up much more UV rays which can be very harmful in the short and long haul. But, Casey, isn't that hole over Antartica (and never near me)? Why, yes it is. And Uruguay is not too far from Antartica really. Check out this picture. In the top right you can barely make out Uruguay.



So, wear your sunscreen! I just provided you scientific proof for why you should.



(Yeah, I'm not going to wear any either).
