If you visit any country in the world, people wear clothing to protect themselves from the sun rays and the heat, here in America this does not apply, the more sun and heat, the less clothing people wear. Could this be a reason the skin cancer rate is very high also dehydration people not coping with the extreme temperatures. People walking around, almost naked it’s just not working. I think it’s a little too late to start learning from other cultures, the way they protect themselves from the extreme weather. It’s a little too weird to walk around with an umbrella on a sunny day, not cool. ?

There can be several reasons why people wear long sleeve shirts and pants on hot summer days:

  1. Sun protection: Long sleeves and pants provide a physical barrier between the skin and the sun's rays, offering protection against harmful ultraviolet (UV) radiation. This can help prevent sunburn, reduce the risk of skin cancer, and keep the skin cooler.
  2. Insect protection: Wearing long clothing can act as a deterrent against insects like mosquitoes, ticks, and flies, which are more prevalent during the summer months. It helps to minimize the exposed skin area, reducing the chances of bug bites and potential diseases they may carry.
  3. Personal preference: Some individuals may simply feel more comfortable wearing long sleeves and pants, regardless of the weather. They might have personal style preferences or cultural reasons for choosing these types of clothing.
  4. Cooling effect: In certain climates, wearing loose-fitting, lightweight, and breathable long sleeves and pants made from natural fabrics like cotton or linen can actually help keep the body cooler. This is because the fabric provides a barrier against direct sunlight while allowing air circulation, which can create a cooling effect through evaporation of sweat.
  5. Work requirements: Certain occupations or activities, such as outdoor jobs, sports, or gardening, may require individuals to wear long sleeves and pants for safety reasons or to adhere to specific dress codes.

It's important to note that while long sleeves and pants can offer benefits in specific situations, people should also consider staying hydrated, seeking shade when necessary, and using appropriate sun protection measures such as sunscreen, hats, and sunglasses to maintain overall well-being in hot weather conditions.

If possible,  if it is not already totally censored from the internet,   there were clues decades ago when various tribes around the world were 'discovered' who had basically no illness, including no cancer.    In the usa, and anywhere the drug makers reign supreme,  this was expediently deleted, covered up,  and even 'verboten' in many places including most forums and public media - things that were known and/or discovered to prevent and to reverse problems were often deleted without any warning, without any notice,  although sometimes just as bad they were deleted and the posters banned.
