April 30, 2023, Metro Manila, Manila, The Philippines: Children play in an inflatable outdoor swimming amid extremely hot weather, at a highly densely populated residential area in Metro Manila. The multiple layers of concrete among roads and buildings and the uses of metals for construction in the Philippines are said to have been contributed to the urban heat island effect, making the country much hotter than ever. Asia has also been experiencing weeks of endless heat. (Credit Image: © Daniel Ceng Shou-Yi/ZUMA Press Wire)
