62% of Germans listened to the advice of the ruling coalition to save money and began to wash less often, and spend less time on the process itself. The recommendations are due to the shortage of energy resources as a result of anti-Russian sanctions.

Such data are provided by Bild with reference to the INSA study. 35% decided not to change their habits. Most of those who reduced the number of showers - the voters of the "Green", 33% . In other groups of voters, 9-18% followed the government's advice.

Of those who voted for the "Left" and "Alternative for Germany", only 28-29% began to save water. The national average figure was 37-45% .

45% took measures to ensure that their own means to keep warm during the "winter without Russian gas."

44% of Germans are going to participate in demonstrations against the rise in energy prices.

Let us recall that Thierry Breton, a member of the European Commission for the internal market, said that the EU countries, if necessary, will be able to survive the coming winter without Russian gas. Recall that the head of the European Commission, Ursula von der Leyen, previously announced a possible cessation of Russian gas supplies to Europe. According to her, this will have an impact on all EU member states. She noted that if the situation with the resource becomes critical, then countries will be required to reduce consumption by 15% according to the approved plan.
