Wien. Neben den Kriegsschlagzeilen in der Ukraine, steigenden Rohstoffpreisen und Inflation sind die heutigen Engpässe in der globalen Halbleiterindustrie nicht zu unterschätzen. Fast kein modernes technisches Gerät funktioniert heute ohne den Einsatz eines Chips. „Ob im Auto, der Smartwatch oder der Türklingel, Halbleiter sind mittlerweile in den unterschiedlichsten Gegenständen zu finden“, sagt Heiko Geiger, Zertifikatsspezialist bei der Bank Vontobel. Geiger sagt auch, dass die vielfältigen Anwendungsbereiche in der Industrie zu einem erheblichen Wachstum des Halbleitermarktes beigetragen haben....

The controversial minister, who has been appointed to the role of secretary of statement for business, energy and industrial strategy, has dismissed climate science as “alarmism” and criticised the closure of coal-fired powers station.

The Guardian understands he told party donors at an event the week before voting closed that he would remain at the political forefront regardless of the result. Allies close to the former chancellor confirmed he planned to honor that pledge and not stand down from parliament, which would have triggered an early and potentially embarrassing by-election for Truss in his Yorkshire constituency of Richmond. Sunak received 43% of the vote from Tory members and sources in his campaign claimed to have won over a high percentage of members who remained undecided until the final weeks of the contest....

As onlookers seek to read the environmental signals being sent by Truss’s new appointments, there has been particular interest in the ideas of Matthew Sinclair, who published Let Them Eat Carbon in 2011. With the subtitle “The price of failing climate policies and how governments and big business profit from them”, the book sets out to tackle what Sinclair calls “the burgeoning climate change industry”. In the book, he argues that climate change policies “push up electricity bills, make it more expensive to drive to work or fly away on holiday, put manufacturing workers out of a job – they sometimes even make your food more expensive”....

The proposed levies, to be discussed by EU energy ministers on Friday, would target fossil fuel and low-carbon power producers that have made extra profits thanks to artificially inflated electricity prices, according to people familiar with the plan. They will then seek to channel the proceeds to vulnerable consumers and households.

Mr Trump Jr, the 44-year-old eldest child of former President Donald Trump, has long been one of the most outspoken members of the Trump political machine — which is one reason why some observers accused him of hypocrisy after he hit out at Mr Biden. “Imagine what the media would do if Trump gave that speech about millions of democrat voters,” Mr Trump Jr tweeted last Friday. “It really makes you realize how partisan and broken they are when watching them desperately run cover for arguably the most divisive speech in American history....

Herzogin Meghan soll in der Vergangenheit schon einige Male stark gewesen sein. Herzogin Meghan (41) wird dieser Tage wohl von niemandem beneidet. Neben dem anhaltenden Hoax über ihre Beziehung zum britischen Königshaus kommen nun immer mehr Unwahrheiten ans Licht, die die US-Amerikanerin angeblich erzählt hat. Von Euphemismen bis zu glatten Lügen ist alles dabei. Besonders auffällig an ihrer Faser ist, wie sehr Meghan offenbar versucht, die Familie ihres Mannes Prinz Harry (37) in den Kakao zu ziehen – auch wenn er seiner Frau gegenüber mehr oder weniger stoisch war und wenig Kontakt zu seiner Familie hatte....

Les Chiliens ont massivement rejeté, dimanche 4 septembre, une proposition de nouvelle constitution visant à remplacer celle héritée de la dictature d’Augusto Pinochet (1973-1990).

MAXPPP ANALYSE – En l’absence de majorité absolue et frappés par des crises, les députés des Procès s’interrogent sur le déroulement du quinquennat. Dans la mémoire macroniste, une rentrée politique s’est rarement révélée aussi sombre. Les élus qui doutaient encore ont été avertis par Emmanuel Macron. Sans majorité absolue et malmenés par la crise énergétique, les députés de la coalition présidentielle sont tour à tour rattrapés par la “fin de l’abondance”, “l’insouciance” et “l’évidence”, pointées le 24 août par un chef de l’Etat qui a mis en garde contre “la grande changement dans le monde....
