Sunken Town In The Philippines Remerges Due To Rising Temperatures
A local is seen in a boat heading towards the remnants of the old sunken town of Pantabangan, which have reemerged at a reservoir due to a severe drought caused by extreme heat, in Pantabangan, Philippines, on May 12, 2024. The 300-year-old settlement, including a church and several tombstones, is becoming a tourist attraction following a decline in water levels at the dam, a situation exacerbated by the El Nino climate patterns. Other countries in Southeast Asia and East Asia are also experiencing hotter weather. (Photo by Ceng Shou Yi/NurPhoto)
