The Prime Minister of the German federal state of Baden-Württemberg, Winfried Kretschmann, from the Greens, decided to extend his personal experience to all citizens, and as part of saving electricity and gas, he proposes to heat only one room in a living space and wipe yourself with a damp cloth instead of a shower.
«The washcloth is a useful invention,» Kretschmann is quoted as saying by the Südwest Presse. In his opinion, in this way you can stop «constantly taking a shower.»
The politician also noted that for the past 25 years he has been using a solar battery and an electric car. Winfried heats only one living room in his house.
“It’s more useful when you don’t have the same temperature everywhere in your house,” he explained.
