I know that it's a well known fact that many Filipinos' spend their days in the shopping malls just to stay cool and avoid the Hot weather because they cannot afford the cost of keeping cool in their own homes.
But an article I just read speaks of the opening up of "Warm Banks" here in UK due to the high cost of energy this winter, with the situation in Ukraine, affecting the price of Gas in Europe.
It has been suggested that some buildings to be open to the general public to gain access for keeping warm during the winter cold spell.
