As far as bare skin, even the guys cleaning beaches etc have space suits on. You work 20 mins and break for 40 because the suits are so hot, so they rotate people and need as many as they can.
We are trying to keep the oil OUT of where we are so this is why Im getting involved. The booms are being deployed and they need as many people as they can train right now, so I signed up.

It's cool to get involved with stuff, kinda why I joined the Navy, thought I was doing some good while I was in. My daughter did a lot more, she was on the Ronald Reagan when it did this
The Reagan Carrier Strike Group performed humanitarian assistance and disaster relief operations in the Philippines on 24 June 2008 after that country was devastated by Typhoon Fengshen, killing hundreds from the central island regions and the main island of Luzon. The typhoon also capsized the passenger ferry MV Princess of the Stars.[17] Working in support of the Armed Forces of the Philippines, Reagan and her escorts of Carrier Strike Group 7 focused their efforts on the island of Panay in the Central Visayas. For eight days, SH-60 Seahawk helicopters and C-2A Greyhound aircraft of the Ronald Reagan Strike Group helped deliver more than 519,000 lbs. of rice, fresh water and other supplies to areas of Panay, which were not reachable via truck due to flooded roads. The mission in Panay would earn the entire strike group the Navy's Humanitarian Service Medal.
She's pretty proud of that
Being on a submarine, We wearn't even to be seen

Carbon is not the problem, it makes up 0.041% of our atmosphere , 95% of that is from Volcanos and decomposing plants and stuff. So people in the US are responsible for 13% of the carbon in the atmosphere which 95% is not from Humans, like cars and trucks and stuff and they want to spend trillions to fix it while Solar Panel plants are powered by coal plants
think about that
