The summertime gas price spike has been driven by lower gasoline stockpiles and a series of refinery outages caused by extreme heat. Goldman Sachs estimated that record heat levels in Texas have likely led to a sharp 2 percent slump in U.S. refiners' product yields over the past few weeks. AAA

(230110) -- BEIJING, Jan. 10, 2023 (Xinhua) -- Li Peisheng picks up garbage on the cliffs of Huangshan Mountain in east China's Anhui Province, Aug. 14, 2022. Li Peisheng is a sanitation worker at the Huangshan Mountain scenic area. Unlike many other sanitation workers, Li, equipped with climbing ropes, has to climb along steep cliffs to collect garbage and help tourists retrieve their lost properties. China has been awarding grassroots heroes as "Good Samaritans of China" since 2008. Li made it to the list of awardees in 2012. (Xinhua/Zhang Duan)
