G'day Marshall,

Thanks for your msg about CFCs and the UV problem.

We are situated in North Queensland. Queensland has the highest rate of skin cancer in the world. And yes, you are right in assuming that our school students are not allowed to be out in the sun without a 'suitable' hat to keep the suns rays off the face and back of the neck.

The major TV network ABC, broadcasts the UV rating and shows a graph of the UV vs time throughout the day, on the evening news.

We have recently had a referendum to find out if the people of the state wanted day-light saving. But the no-one wanted it. One of the main reasons was that the kids would get out of school at the real time of 2 in the afternoon instead of 3 in the afternoon, thus raising the chances of getting skin cancer.

On the matter of CFCs. We think you that perhaps you should start lobbying your congressman. The USA is the only major country not to have signed the treaty banning CFCs.

ooroo
