Appell von Energieversorgern und Öko-Unternehmen Mehr als 1700 Unternehmen kritisieren Reiches Energiepolitik Innerhalb eines Tages haben Hunderte Firmen einen Appell gegen die Energiepolitik der Bundesregierung unterzeichnet. Besonders in der Kritik: die Reformen von Wirtschaftsministerin Katherina Reiche. 07.03.2026, 17.56 Uhr
Es wird höchste Zeit, dass sich die Unternehmen, die eben auch "die Wirtschaft" sind, mal deutlich zu Wort melden. Dass schwarz-rot in Wahrheit Politik für Gasverkäufer und zwei Netzkonzerne macht, wird allen anderen nämlich schaden. www.spiegel.de/wirts...

Die Schweiz stimmt über ein Klima-Finanzierungsziel ab: 0,5% bis 1% des BIP soll der Staat für Klimaschutz ausgeben.
Eine gute Gelegenheit, um die Geschichte des ökonomischen Denkens über die Ökonomie des Klimaschutzes aufzurollen.
Have fun!

It's a small part of the broader bloodbath, but the guy who made his fortune selling *books* online closing the *books* section of the newspaper he owns deserves some kind of special medal for hypocrisy.

Tja lieber Markus Somm, wenn du auch nur 1 Sek nachdenken würdest, dann würdest du merken, dass netto-null die Schweiz unabhängiger von erpresserischen Erdöl-Exporteuren macht und damit stärker. Aber das ist wohl zu viel verlangt.

This would then crash the oil price to -50USD per barrel 😂
"We should have the lowest interest rate because we are the biggest economy" is really not how economics works.
Say what you want about the WWII talk. But "you can say No and we’ll remember" is not a hard threat on Greenland.
AFAIK the US was the only nation to ever trigger article 5 after 9/11. And Europe was there. Total denial by Trump on this.
Trump is really obsessed with windmills
99% of his speeches are like that
Trump's speech is pretty boring so far, honestly.
These are the lucky nations who will get to pay for rooms at Mar-a-Lago, where the peace board will have its meeting ;-)
“Most Americans don’t agree with Mr. Trump’s trying to buy Greenland, and many more oppose the idea of taking it by force. Fantasies deflate quickly once real costs become obvious, but it is impossible for Europe to impose costs without incurring risks itself.”

At this point, the Nobel committee should just ring Trump and tell him he'll get the prize - if he backs off Greenland.
And the year after that, they can award the prize to themselves.
Wait, wasn't he supposed to be the adult in the room?
"Activate the Anti-Coercion Instrument!" also sounds kinda cool. Imagine a sci-fi space captain saying this to the 1st officer.
Die Zahl der Toten im Iran ist unfassbar. Sogar das Regine selbst spricht von über 5.000. Ärzte von mindestens 16.500 und 330.000 Verletzten. Was für ein schreckliches Massaker, es übersteigt die Vorstellungskraft www.thetimes.com/world/middle...
