Last year, the nonprofit Climate Central launched an online database to track the most costly weather- and climate-related disasters across the country. The effort was led by the same lead scientist who tracked those costs for the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration-until the Trump administration axed the project in May. In 2025, the US experienced 23 such disasters with costs totaling at least $1 billion, for a total of $115 billion, Climate Central concluded.

More than 7 million UK motorists (17%) admit to breaking a road law in an emergency, with nearly a quarter (24%) confessing they would bend the rules if they thought they wouldn't get caught, according to new research by temporary car insurance provider, Tempcover. More than half of motorists (68%) believe it's 'OK' to park on double yellows, exceed the speed limit, and drive through a bus lane if it's an emergency.
