Increase fog as player gets closer

I’m trying to increase a density when player is getting closer using position, it works but is there a better approach?

local IsTouching = false
task.spawn(function()
	for _,v in Character:GetChildren() do
		v.Touched:Connect(function(Hit)
			if tostring(Hit):lower():match("triggerfog") then
				IsTouching = true
			end
		end)
		v.TouchEnded:Connect(function(Hit)
			if tostring(Hit):lower():match("triggerfog") then
				IsTouching = false
			end
		end)
		while true do
			task.wait()
			if IsTouching then
				TweenService:Create(game:GetService("Lighting").Atmosphere, TweenInfo.new(0.2), {Density = math.abs((Character.PrimaryPart.Position - workspace.Folder.Union.Position).Magnitude) / 40}):Play()
			end
		end
	end
end)

Highlighted parts are what’s suppose to increase the density.
(Middle is just what sets the boolean, like the player is inside an area)

If you want to use position, you can use this loop. There is no need for touching parts, but if there was, you could use GetTouchingParts.

local positionToGetCloseTo : Vector3 = Vector3.zero
local atmosphere = game:GetService("Lighting").Atmosphere
game:GetService("RunService").Heartbeat:Connect(function(delta)
	local dist = (Character.PrimaryPart.Position - workspace.Folder.Union.Position).Magnitude -- This is always positive. (thats what magnitude is)
	atmosphere.Density = dist / 40
end)

Is there a way to do this for part’s transparency? decrease transparency as player gets close?
also for math abs i did that beacuse my first attempt made the density becmoe negative (-30 or below)
