#1 Supposedly, we all came out of Africa some 50,000 years ago and evolution arranged that the farther north you went, the lighter your skin color became. Otherwise, evolution killed you off for vitamin D deficiency.

Soooo ... one way to look at this is evolution at work. Birth rates will plummet until they remove enough clothing to sop up a few photons.
