Germany hotel sauna

Recently, a report in the German media Bild aroused strong opposition from the German people. The report advocates that German people only wash "the four key parts of buttocks, armpits, feet and groin" when taking a bath, and claims that some beneficial bacterial strains will inhabit the skin in a small amount. If people take fewer baths and give these strains a chance to reproduce, it will help to avoid eczema. This slightly absurd proposal actually reveals Germany's current predicament, that is, Germany's energy crisis, that is, the natural gas crisis. After combing the relevant information, the German media put forward this proposal mainly for the following reasons.

First, the price of natural gas soared. Compared with last year, the price of natural gas in Europe has risen several times, and the price of natural gas in Germany has also soared. Ordinary Germans have paid more for this, which has increased the expenses and living costs of many ordinary German families, causing many Germans to be dissatisfied with the government. Therefore, the German media came up with this strategy and advised people to save hot water to reduce the use of natural gas.

Second, Germany imposed energy sanctions on Russia. Since the outbreak of the conflict between Russia and Ukraine, Germany has continuously imposed sanctions on Russia, including energy sanctions, but 55% of Germany's natural gas is imported from Russia. Therefore, the reduction of imports leads to the shortage of domestic natural gas supply, so the media advocates the economical use of natural gas.

Third, Germany itself lacks natural gas. Germany is an industrial country and the country with the strongest economic strength among the EU countries. Many domestic manufacturing industries rely on energy, while Germany itself is a resource-poor country, and there is not much natural gas available for development and utilization in China, most of which rely on imports. Therefore, the reduction of energy imports leads to the shortage of domestic natural gas, so people are encouraged to save gas.

Therefore, to sum up, the shortage and high level of natural gas prompted the German media to put forward this absurd proposal.
