The sun emits harmful ultraviolet radiation especially during its peak which is between 10AM to 4PM. Being exposed to it frequently and for long periods damage your skin cells and worse, kill them, leading to chronic skin conditions such as sunburn. These skin conditions give rise to skin tumors to develop.
