Kim Schultz still struggles to describe how hard and fast the rain fell in her corner of southern Indiana that afternoon last September. “I’ve never seen anything like it. Never,” she recalled. Relentless rainfall inundated parts of the area — including 4.59 inches in a single hour at one spot in nearby Switzerland County, according to the National Weather Service. The deluge transformed the creek that runs near her home near Madison, Ind., into a raging river that swept away a calf and hundreds of hay bales, she said. The floodwaters tore the asphalt off the top of a nearby bridge,...…Kim Schultz still struggles to describe how hard and fast the rain fell in her corner of southern Indiana that afternoon last September. “I’ve never seen anything like it.

Climate and Environment How a pile of toxic pollution was dumped in a community of color Marsha Jackson, 62, in her backyard off South Central Expressway in Dallas, is dwarfed by Shingle Mountain, an illegal toxic waste dump. By Marsha Jackson didn’t go to the mountain. The mountain came to her. From her home in south Dallas, she watched it grow until it towered at 60 feet tall and spread all the way to her backyard, “a few feet from my bedroom.” The mountain is human-made — an environmental nightmare of discarded roofing shingles stretching more than a city block.
