World Space run from October 4th – 10th. This years theme is Space and Climate Change. Space affects climate through solar and ultraviolet radiation. The sun is the Earth’s primary source of energy. And it can effect the temperatures across the Earth.
The ways we can take better care of ourselves because of radiation are:
- Ozone Layer Protection
- Sunscreen and Protective Clothing
- UV Blocking Material
- Shade Structures
- Educating the public on the effects of radiation
