An infographic about the UV index. The top section reads: "The UV index is an indicator of when the sun is most dangerous." Below, it states: "When the UV index is 3 and above, protect yourself from the sun." In the center, there's an illustration of a smartphone screen showing a UV index scale: Low (UV index 1–2): Green, sun protection not required Moderate (UV index 3–5): Yellow, sun protection required High (UV index 6–7): Orange, sun protection required Very High (UV index 8–10): Red, sun protection required Extreme (UV index 11+): Purple, sun protection required A call-to-action in a yellow box reads: "Be aware of the UV index, wherever you are. Download the SunSmart Global UV App," with logos for the App Store and Google Play.
The UV index tells you when the ☀️ is most dangerous. When it indicates 3 & above, you need sun protection.

Satellite image of the Antarctic ozone hole on September 11, 2003, showing a depletion of ozone over the South Pole, larger than the size of North America. The image, taken by TOMS on the Earth Probe satellite, highlights the impact of atmospheric pollutants on the ozone layer, crucial for shielding Earth from harmful UV radiation. While international efforts have decreased damaging chemicals, this year's ozone hole is larger than last year's due to colder stratospheric temperatures.
