What are two ways you protect yourself against ultraviolet light?

Answer 1

When you are going to be out in the sun for a long period, wear sunblock, and spend some time in the shade when you can.

To choose a sunblock, the SPF rating tells you the multiple for how long you should be able to be in the sun. e.g. SPF 10 multiplies how long you can be in the sun without burning by 10.

This is not an easy number to know any true value for. Every person burns at a different rate, every time you step into the shade for a couple minutes it helps prolong this time, and how direct the sun is, as well as many other factors can lengthen or shorten how long it will take to burn.
