La "hipocresía verde": a la Cumbre del Clima en jet privado

Una lluvia de aviones privados ha marcado el arranque la COP26 de Glasgow y ha provocado las acusaciones de "hipocresía verde" hacia los líderes y empresarios. Hasta 400 jets, encabezados por el Gulf Stream del hombre más rico de la Tierra, Jeff Bezos, han aterrizado en los últimos días en los aeropuertos de Glasgow y Edimburgo, según estimaciones de The Daily Mail. Se calcula que los viajes en avión pueden suponer hasta el 85% de la mancha de carbono de la cumbre del clima.

Las fábricas españolas llenan sus almacenes al precio más caro de la democracia por miedo al desabastecimiento

La industria manufacturera se encuentra en estado crítico. Las materias primas y productos semielaborados que necesita para su proceso productivo escasean y las pocas que hay disponibles se venden al precio más alto desde el año 1977.

Pese a que hacer acopio de insumos -los materiales que necesitan para producir- les resulta ahora más caro que nunca, las fábricas del país han aprovechado el mes de octubre para comprar todo lo que han podido y llenar sus almacenes.

Why climate graphs are biased

It is true that the graphs shown in newspapers and climate reports are correct. But they are taken out of context, biased. 

Truly, taking only the last few thousand years, they are correct and it can be said that the temperature is increasing a lot compared to "near" pre-industrial times.

But what happens if we take all the available data, which go back many millions of years?

Chip crunch to hit Renault production more than forecast as semiconductor crisis deepens

French carmaker Renault said on Friday its production losses in 2021 because of a global semiconductor chip shortage would be far larger than previously forecast, but maintained its profit outlook thanks to high car pricing and cost cuts.

The shortage of chips, used in everything from brake sensors to power steering to entertainment systems, has led automakers around the world to cut or even suspend production, pushing up vehicle prices.

Like its peers, Renault has focused production on more profitable models.

Gestamp posts 9M net income of EUR101m

Gestamp has recorded 2021 nine-month net income of EUR101m (US$118m), compared to -EUR92n last year.

Revenue rose 19.5% to EUR5.9bn, while EBITDA reached EUR701m.

Net income during 9M, 2021, was driven by lower financial expenses, higher control of foreign exchange variations but impacted by EBITDA margin evolution in a more volatile market environment.

Gestamp noted its results were despite the high volatility in production volumes due to the shortages of semiconductors, which is expected to reduce global output in 2021 by 9m vehicles.
