A nail driven through a supply line during original construction. It happens more often than most claims professionals would expect. In one North Texas home, the fastener sat embedded in the pipe wall for years, gradually weakening the line until it finally gave way. Water traveled through the wall cavity, migrated across the subfloor, and saturated structural assemblies on two levels before the homeowner noticed discoloration on a first-floor ceiling. By the time a restoration crew arrived, the damage footprint extended well beyond the point of origin, and the failure had nothing to do with the homeowner’s maintenance or behavior.…

Almost all of the world’s children are exposed to at least one climate hazard, with as many as 1.8 billion put in danger by droughts and 1.2 billion by extreme heat, the United Nations Children’s Fund (UNICEF) said in a report on Tuesday.

Here are some of the details of UNICEF’s Children’s Climate Risk Report: The report looked at a broad range of climate hazards, as well as the impact…

The city of Baltimore and about 11 private entities including dockworkers and small businesses should not be allowed to collect for any economic losses from the collapse of Baltimore’s Key Bridge in 2024, the owner and manager of the Dali cargo ship that caused the collapse told a federal court.

A vital conduit for global commodity trade, Hormuz has been effectively closed since the first strikes on Iran at the end of February. Even once there is more clarity on the resumption of trade through the waterway, market watchers expect movement of the crop nutrients to be gradual as hundreds of vessels stranded in the region — carrying a variety of cargo — compete…

The battle between high-protein yogurts has entered the courtroom. Danone SA’s US subsidiary sued Chobani in US court on Monday, alleging that Chobani is improperly marketing how much protein is in a serving of its yogurt. The lawsuit, filed in the Southern District of New York, claims that Chobani is manipulating the serving size listed on its 32-ounce container of yogurt to make it appear to have a comparable amount of protein as Danone’s Oikos Pro. That’s misleading customers into thinking the products have similar protein density, when Oikos Pro contains more protein per ounce, Danone said. Consumer demand for…
