Surviving the World
A Photocomic Education by Dante Shepherd
Lesson #2927 - UV
It's actually really interesting why the UV radiation is associated with economic output - essentially, increased radiation leads to increased UV-related eye diseases, like cataracts, which thus reduces how long someone can work, which thus reduces 'the incentive to invest in themselves and their children'. Ok, I said it was interesting, not that it was uplifting.
