Kerala: Each summer brings more & more heat to us,very often in an unbearable condition.The emission of heat from the tarred roads,vehicles & concrete buildings brings so many diseases to men.The former sights of fields,trees & streams are veiled now & world is urbanizing.Cities are now called to be  the
' Concrete Desert '.
There was even above 39 degree Celsius atmospheric temperature reported in some districts like Palakkad & Thiruvananthapuram.Studies show that the most number of worldwide cataract victims are in Kerala.The intensity of heat from sun is the reason behind this.The dangerous ultraviolet rays from sun may bring skin cancer to the society.

We can to take care of our health in the summer if we are willing to adapt to the climate.
