☆ The world's largest chipmaker TSMC is about to be tested as it uses more and more power
▼ + stars: | 2024-10-07 | by ( Helen Li | ) www.businessinsider.com time to read: +3 min

TSMC has high power usage, and Taiwan's tight electricity supply will test its chip production. TSMC aims for net zero emissions by 2050, but renewable energy growth faces hurdles. The surge in energy consumption last year is likely due to the increase in 3nm semiconductor production, the analysts said. In 2021, TSMC announced a commitment to reach net zero emissions by 2050 through a combination of renewable energy certificates and power purchase agreements. Adding renewable energy supplies would help alleviate this problem, although the island's geography makes it difficult to increase solar and wind power sources.

In the dark days after the Oct. 7 terror attack on Israel and the ensuing military assault on Gaza, some dared hope the carnage could, in some way, become a catalyst for peace. “Crises can create opportunities,” veteran Israeli peace negotiator Yossi Beilin told NBC News last year. The world had given up on the Israel-Palestinian question, he said, but the horror of Oct. 7 and its aftermath “changed everything,” provoking a worldwide cry that this should never happen again. “There’s definitely room for hope,” Omar Dajani, a former legal adviser to Palestinian negotiation teams, agreed. “So long as we bear in mind that hope and optimism are different things.”One year later, those glimmers of hope have been shredded.

Once the power is cut, a full freezer can hold a safe temperature for 48 hours with the door closed. They should also be kept in separate areas of the refrigerator any day of the week, regardless of the weather.

A billionaire minimum tax is one of several proposals pushed by Democrats in recent years to tax the rich. Harris has specifically called for raising the top tax rate on millionaires with long-term realized capital gains from 20% to 28%. Harris’ proposal to increase the tax rate on realized capital gains to 28% would apply to taxpayers with income over $1 million. How a tax on unrealized capital gains would workLet’s discuss how a billionaire minimum tax – which is, on a basic level, a tax on unrealized capital gains – would impact a homeowner. If passed, a billionaire minimum tax – an unprecedented tax on income not yet received – would likely face many legal challenges.
