Why People living in a certain region have a high incidence of skin cancer . Can you identify one possible cause for this?

People living in certain regions may have a high incidence of skin cancer due to increased exposure to ultraviolet (UV) radiation from the sun, often linked to geographic factors such as proximity to the equator or higher altitudes. One possible cause is the lack of adequate protective measures, such as sunscreen use or protective clothing, which can lead to prolonged UV exposure and higher skin cancer risk. Other contributing factors may include lifestyle choices and genetic predisposition to skin cancer.
