- Roughly 80% of a person’s total lifetime UV exposure occurs in the first 18 years of life.
- Babies, children and the elderly are highly sensitive to UV radiation and it can take less than 10 minutes for their unprotected skin to sunburn.
- Skin cancer is by far the most common cancer in the United States with more than one million new cases diagnosed each year.
- Over 90% of skin cancers can be prevented by staying safe in the sun. Staying in the shade is one of the best ways to be safe in the sun.

Kevin Connelly wants to bravely go where no man has gone before.
He wants to use his sun-screen fabric, which he has been using to shade playgrounds and to keep the sun from burning crops in tropical environments, to enter the new world of electric car charging.
Connelly’s biggest challenge is convincing people why they would need to pull their new Nissan Leaf, Chevy Volt or Smart Electric into the shade before they charge it.
He needs data that nobody has collected yet.
His Sarasota County company, Apollo Sunguard, will likely work with NASA to turn an idea that makes common sense into a scientifically proven fact.
Since 1997, when Connelly bought what is now Apollo Sunguard, he has done well in advancing the art of creating artificial shade.
