For almost a decade, farmer Qin Bin, 50, has toiled his plot, growing peaches and dragon fruits for sale to visiting tourists at his orchard on the outskirts of the Chinese megacity of Chongqing.. The extreme heat has forced Qin and fellow farmers to work odd hours -- it's simply too hot to toil during the day as the mercury pushes past 40 degrees Celsius (104 Fahrenheit).
