Central Texas July 2025 flash floods devastate Hill Country
The Guadalupe River basin in Texas experienced catastrophic floods between July 3 and 6. Mortality exceeded 130 with 96 in Kerr County and over 160 still missing by mid July while economic losses run to 18 to 22 billion dollars. The event stemmed from extreme atmospheric moisture and a terrain funnel in Flash Flood Alley, with karst limestone and narrow valleys accelerating runoff.

Carbon tax harms Canadian oil investment, study says
Resource Works researchers say Canada’s unit tax is far higher than peers and imposes a domestic tariff on oil. They cite the 2023 effective tax near $59 per tonne versus $0.30 abroad, plus a 2016 policy shift and a 2019 start to the tax, warning of capital flight and economic headwinds.
