Americans have been hooked on ultraviolet rays since 1920, when fashion designer Coco Chanel paraded a post-cruise suntan and inspired a national craze. Today, the not-so-sunny side of tanning is well-documented. This video outlines the dangers of overexposure to the sun, gearing its message toward teens of all backgrounds and ethnic groups who mistakenly think, “The more sun, the better.” Dermatologist Carolyn Jacob explains what happens to skin during UVA ray exposure—including a range of cancer risks—and provides essential information on staying sun-safe using shade, timing, and the proper sunscreen. Includes a teacher’s guide with 10-question quiz. Not available for preview. (16 minutes)
