(Washington, D.C. – May 19, 2008) Ever wanted to tell EPA what you thought on an environmental topic? Each week, you have your chance in the EPA blog, "Greenversations." Each question is an open-ended blog entry; please share your thoughts as comments.

This week's question:

Why do you seek shade or sun?
With Memorial Day coming up, it's time to think about the sun. How do you protect yourself (and your kids)? Do you follow the SunWise recommendations? If you actively seek sun or use a tanning bed, why? And what would it take to convince you to seek shade instead?
