Prevention is a matter of guarding the skin against the known causes. Since the sun and its ultraviolet rays would seem to be the main culprit, the most effective preventive method is sun avoidance. Limit the exposure of the skin to harmful rays by covering up and using sunscreens with at least a 15 SPF rating.
United Kingdom Mountains. The highest mountains in the UK are in Scotland in the Scottish Highlands. A mountain in Scotland with a height over 3,000 feet (914.4 m) is called a Munro. Munros are named after Sir Hugh Munro (1856â1919), who produced the first list, known as Munros Tables, in 1891.
The second highest mountain in the world has perhaps the shortest name: K2 (also called Mount Godwin Austen). It rises to 28,251 feet (8,611 meters) above sea level in the Karakoram Range of the western Himalayas, on the border between Baltistan (in the part of Kashmir controlled by Pakistan) and China.
