Sunken Town In The Philippines Remerges Due To Rising Temperatures
Remnants of the old sunken town of Pantabangan are reemerging at a reservoir as a result of a severe drought caused by extreme heat in Pantabangan, Philippines, on May 12, 2024. The 300-year-old settlement, which includes a church and several tombstones, is becoming a tourist attraction following a decline in water levels at the dam, caused by rising temperatures and 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)
