Thingyan Festival is nearer in Rangoon city. This water festival always attracts all the Rangoon people. But this year, unfortunately our country met hottest month of the year and, ultraviolet rays could burn our skin with sun\u2019s radiation. The meteorologist warned that residents of Rangoon city would have protection themselves from ultraviolet rays with cover under an umbrellas, hats, or sunglasses. They also said that those ultraviolet comes from burning sun will have more dangerous during water festival, the reflection from water becomes stronger, and it can hurt our skin. People should wear long clothes to cover our body from dangerous ultraviolet rays.<\/span><\/div>\n

Yes, I know about ultraviolet rays since I was in high school. UV light is found in sunlight and, UV spectrum has many other effects, both beneficial and damaging, on human health. However UV rays have very high radiation and are entirely harmful, large portion of the vitamin D that humans and animals need for good health. Naturally the earth\u2019s atmosphere protects living organisms from the sun\u2019s ultraviolet radiation. So, all the ultraviolet radiation produce by the sun were not allowed to reach the surface of the earth.\u00a0\u00a0But now our world is full of gas and losing trees day by day for many reasons.\u00a0\u00a0So, our earth cannot fully protect us from ultraviolet rays from the sun.\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n

Epilogue<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
According to the warning, we should be more careful between 11am and 2pm going outside under the sun, because UV rays are strongest at noon. But I believed that between 11an and 2pm was the time people took their rest during water festival. Oh! How fortunate for thingyan lovers!!<\/span><\/div>\n
