Now, just because there aren't a lot of mortgages in a given area doesn't mean homes aren't being bought and sold, right?

Can you talk about how those deals are getting done and why that can be problematic?

Now, some of this is because of reforms that were made after the big subprime mortgage crisis in the mid-2000s.

Did that backfire in some ways?

All right.

Sharon Cornelison is at the Consumer Federation of America, where she wrote a report about mortgage deserts.

Thank you so much for your time.

When we think about the costs of war, there are, of course, the lives lost, the people injured and displaced, the property and economic damage.

But there is also an environmental toll, whether it's the pollution caused by bombs or the excess burning of fossil fuels.

For more on how the U.S.-Israeli war on Iran will affect environmental and human health, we reached out to Nita Crawford, a professor of international relations at the University of St.

Andrews.

We know that in the short term and in the local area, there is air pollution from fires, black rain, they described in Iran.

That is when buildings and infrastructure burn, they put up a lot of particulate matter.

Then we also know that there's been

water pollution from the tankers that have been destroyed.

And then we know that there are toxic chemicals released in the water and in the air when all of these buildings are destroyed or the munitions are either detonated or they don't detonate and then are contaminating the ground as they decay.

How about the climate effects?

Warfighting machinery obviously burns a lot of fossil fuels, but this war is taking place in an area where there's a lot of oil and gas infrastructure.

In any war, the emissions from the armaments as they get to the place that they're going to fight.

So those are operational and installation emissions that are particular to war.
