"Growing up in Asia, where air pollution is rampant, Travis wanted to protect his skin against pollution"
It says as if his skin was damaged just because he is from Asia. Not all of the Asian countries are covered with haze. Surely, if you are accustomed to seeing foggy landscape of Beijing or Delhi, you will assume that all of the Asian cities are polluted.
But, the fact is that it's limited in some cities.
So, the article should have referred to the city where he was born, instead of saying "Asia".
