Why do pale skinnned people have a gretaer skin cancer risk? Why? Why?

2 reasons.

First the darker the skin the more protection from the sun.

Second dark skinned people do not tend to sunbathe or use tanning beds whereas white skinned people do.

But I live in one of the sunniest places in the world. If you take it easy at first, getting a few hours sun here and there then staying out of it for a day, Getting a few more hours with sunblock and then staying out of it for a few days etc. etc. your skin slowly becomes more naturalised to sunshine. Even then sunshine should be taken in small doses and longer exposure needs sunblock.
