ELI5:Why Do Banana Peels Turn Brown Much Faster In The Refrigerator explainlikeimfive

I Had two bunches of bananas both about the same ripeness. I tried to save one bunch by putting it in the fridge, however the peels turned brown much faster then the ones sitting on my counter. And although the peels were brown the actual banana was still perfectly fine, and tasted even better IMO.

I did search this question and saw some people discussing this phenomenon in past posts, but not good easy to understand explanation
