[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So why people who live in the desert wear dark colors????[/quote] Some specific groups in the desert wear dark clothes, but the style of clothing is very different than western clothing--usually loose, flowing robes made out of material that allows a lot of air flow. The extra heat never makes it to the skin because there is more air circulation happening under the robe which dissipates the heat and speeds up evaporation of sweat to provide further cooling. See this link for an interesting explanation: http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20080424082905AATmHq7 (I know yahoo answers is crap, but it's a citation of a journal article) [/quote]
