awesome, so i said last week we thought to, so that would be so it's like a lottery in the morning when it's when i sat down, you'll wait for the result. and it was all pretty much day by day. i was one case, but it's not just professional soccer that is suffering basketball, handball, and ice hockey teams are now playing in front of mt stadiums. fans are frustrated and clubs are losing money on the international level. 2022 doesn't look promising . just recently at the ice hockey junior world championships in canada, many of the teams were stuck in quarantine in the end. the tournament was cancelled prematurely. you're watching the w news. that's it for me to now. de malone is up next with your business news. i'm alaska, and berlin, thanks for watching the ticket. ah. so i'm scared that i think that's hard
12:16 am
and in the end this a me, you're not locked up to you anymore. we will send you back. are you familiar with this? with the smugglers reliance of it? what's your story? i mean wasn't i was women, especially victims of violence in a lapse of it. take part and send us your story. we are trying always to understand this new culture. so you are not a visitor, not the guests. you want to become a citizen in phil migrants, your platform for reliable information. ah, ah, our nuclear and gas green energies, a new e u draft rule says both should be eligible for the sustainable financing offered

by banks and investors and sought by companies to critics caught green washing and say could harm the confidence energy transition. also on the show even renewables have their dirty sod retired wind turbines aren't easy to dispose of. we'll visit the polish business now, putting them to good use. hello and welcome to the show. i'm seen beardsley in berlin and we begin a wall street where apple briefly surpassed a market valuation of 3 trillion dollars on monday. that's a 1st for us company. apple hit the threshold when it share price reached a record $182.88 in earlier trading. before falling later, the shares have tripled in value since the pandemic low in march 2020 tech firms have collectively done well during the pandemic. but apple has excelled expanding from device sales into music and tv services. are i? let's go to jens quarter in new york for more. yes. good to you. it seems like it
12:18 am
was a long ago that apple reach the one trillion dollar mark in valuation now to 3 trillion dollars. how did this happen so fast? yeah, it's incredible. i mean, the company is very successful or whatever it touches so that it leaves how it seems like. but if you see that for the very 1st time they across to one trillion dollar mark in august of 2018 and then the 2 trillion dollar mark in august of 20. and now we've seen that 3 trillion dollar market as company has ever achieved that before. it is quite a breathtaking, i mean, the shareholders of apple are known to really stick to the stock. but if you look at 2022, we might see it change and monetary policy. so higher interest rate usually are not that great for big tech corporation, but at least for now nobody really seems to care when it comes to apple. and the stock actually is up by more than 200 percent since the lowes in the year 2020.
12:19 am
that's incredible. apple gets some of the headlines for the day, but tesla really making a lot of ground today up after news that it's deliveries. and last year we're up is exceptionally almost by 90 percent compared to the prior year. how has tesla done so well when the industry at large hasn't done that well during the last year again, we've talked about all those supply chain issue is similar to a shortage shelf from semiconductors. but tesla, for example, especially when it comes to a shortage of semiconductors, was a capital of actually shifting around some, sam, i, conductors of computer chips from some areas to another. so at the end of the day, they still could keep up with production and demand. obviously, it's a strong, a tesla is saying that they expect an average delivery road. so for the next couple of years of at least 50 percent of that stock was up by 13 percent here on monday
12:20 am
session and talking about variation. tesla now has valuation of more than one trillion dollars to compare that with general motors, for example. they have a market capitalization of 80000000000 and tesla more than 10 times as much with more than 1000000 dollar market cap or in court in new york with some of the wilder numbers on wall street. thanks so much and let's go now to some of the other global business stories making headlines. and, well, tesla is the top selling brand in norway were electric. vehicle sales jumped 25 percent last year and now account for nearly 2 thirds of car sales there. norway has the world's highest proportion of electric vehicles. despite its dependence on oil production, the country has encourage buyers by exempting electric vehicles from taxes. property investment fund, t p g. real estate has bought a majority stake in germany's largest film studio studio bubbles back. major
12:21 am
hollywood movies, such as steven spielberg's, bridge of spies and the latest in the matrix franchise were shot. their wall street firms are on the hunt proceed. complexes because of a boom in streaming content was staying in europe. the definition of green investment is creating a lot of frustration. on friday, the european commission release a draft proposal that adds nuclear and natural gas projects to a list of sustainable activities. the draft is part of the use so called sustainable finance taxonomy. it essentially tries to define green projects for banks, investors, and even companies borrowing via green bonds. now, if the rules approved later this year, it means that a company or an investment bank could tethered rein credentials despite investing in essentially 30 energy. now germany is phasing out nuclear energy, but the government there says gas is an important bridge to cleaner energy sources
12:22 am
. and the expansion of renewables in germany is considerable. for critics say that it's not ready to replace the reliable energy production brought by gas and nuclear . you states, such as france, meanwhile, gets 70, which gets 70 percent, roughly 70 percent of its power from nuclear. they see nuclear as crucial to facing out to you to admitting coal energy they want nuclear power included in that taxonomy. or earlier i spoke with andreas hepner, he's a professor of operational risk banking and finance. at the university college dublin school of business. he's also a member of the platform, unsustainable finance. that's an expert panel, the counsel beer being commission in its development of that taxonomy. so i asked him what he thinks about the new draft tick, listen, it is a very influence. it's a price and it was shared was as some of us on new year's eve, which is surprising. there was a big debate and i think views were pretty clear. and so i'm disappointed i need to say, and now we're assessing the actual draft proposal,
12:23 am
which is publicly available on the website of far as green politicians if people want to read it. now address neither gas nor nuclear are truly clean energies, but if they help countries meet their net 0 commitments, what is the problem including them in this taxonomy, making it easier for investors to fund them? so let me try to metaphorically explain the case of gas 1st and then we can see to what extent we believe that it will help to meet at 02050. keep in mind that the opportunity is until 2030 to apply for license to build this gas as anybody can see in the publicly available document. so if i metaphorically speaking, go to a fast food shape and i store actually order a triple cheese burger was baking. and then i decide that i'll leave the baking of a and i only do a double cheeseburger. and that's, i'll do for the next 20 years, just double cheeseburger, and then maybe on occasions i go for
12:24 am
a single cheeseburger. is it going to be a diet that's particularly effective? many would say it might not be. and so in essence, declaring gas as green, even if a switch for coal oil is in my view, the equivalent to eating a double cheeseburger instead of a triple cheese burger with bacon. and then determining that for 20 years can potentially lead up to a 1000000000 ad su to equivalence and greenhouse gas emissions a 1000000000 tons. so c o 2 equivalent greenhouse gas emissions to be precise that are the clear green by government. right, so it's clear that some governments, including the german government, see gas as a bridging technology. you're saying that you think that even though it bridges all the way to 2050, the set goal for net 0 in germany that it's still. busy not the right option because it creates more damage along the way. i mean, if the goal is 2015 at 0,
12:25 am
so doesn't that ends justify those means? or would you say that you can then speed up that 0? if you say no gas. so the goal is 55 percent by 2030. now if you permit someone to declare something green that in 2030 stuffs for a 20 year period together was at least a 3 year ever construction time for a gas station on a 55 percent reduction. well then you had 55 percent reduction by 2053, not 55 percent by 2030. so on my rough calculations this proposal in terms of the traveling speed of d cabin as ation is 30 percent of the speed that we need. and so it's just to flow, it is on the way to net 0, but it's not on the way to 90 or 2050. it's on the way to 0. 2100. all right, and chris is a professor of operational risk banking and finance at the university college dublin school business. thank you very much. or even renewables have their dirty

side scrapped. wind turbines are actually considered hazardous waste. that means they can't just be thrown out. now one polish company has found a way to put retired turbines to better use them more than 20 years old. to small, i'm reliable and on viable. many windmills are being removed. but what happens to the rotor blades often made of plastic and other toxic materials? in poland, the company and mit is turning them into swimming jetties or load bearing members. such as in this foot bridge. it's the brainchild of engineer and the z adams here. these old rotor blades as a valuable resource spout me guar news. for example, the shape of a pillar isn't change because it helps you with what it doesn't wrote of lives out of video. it should be a monument tie you very big on them and people should find it impressive when it'll
