The Netherlands is giving out free sunscreen this summer

It will install free dispensers in parks and public spaces as well as schools, universities and festivals. Europe experienced its hottest summer ever in 2022. 2023 has already broken records across the continent. The Netherlands has the 4th highest skin cancer rate in the world behind Australia, New Zealand and Denmark. 1 in 6 Dutch people will develop skin cancer in their lifetime. The government wants people to access sunscreen without being hindered by cost. In some places, hand sanitizers from the pandemic will be repurposed as sunscreen dispensers. #suncream #heatwave #netherlands #skincancerprevention
