GermanyIn response to increasingly frequent heatwaves, two Japanese companies have introduced an unusual cooling aid called the Do Hiemon, a walk-in cooling cabin designed to rapidly cool individuals and protect them from the effects of extreme heat. The stainless steel cabin maintains an internal temperature of 15 degrees Celsius and directs a five-degree cooler air stream toward the head, neck, shoulders, and back.
