When she answered the questioning session of the Swiss newspaper "20 minutes", she suggested that they "turn off the computer, turn off the lights, or take a bath together when they do not need a computer."

The proposal was immediately ridiculed in social media. Forced Somaruka to clarify his position in an interview with the Swiss newspaper "Daily Herald". She said that the suggestion was for young people and acknowledged that "after a certain age, bathing together is no longer suitable for everyone."

Nevertheless, she insisted that her thoughts were widely recognized and helped encourage people to aware of the importance of saving.

Savari, the editor of the country's Women's Magazine, accused the ministers of being too wide, until "the most insignificant details." In a society, she sarcastically said that the Swiss people should turn off the heating every night, find a way to warm up in the morning, and take a shower with her partner, and then walk to the office with hand. Remember to take the car, pedal car, electric electricity, electric electricity Bicycles stay in the garage.

It is reported that this is not the first time that the Swiss government has suggested taking a bath together to save energy. In 1985, the country's Federal Energy Office published a booklet to promote a bath together. The slogan at the time was "reduced waste and double happiness."

According to the World Bank data, Switzerland is actually very rich, with a per capita wealth of 93,457 US dollars, while Britain is $ 47,334. However, due to the influence of natural gas shortage, Switzerland's energy supply is difficult. Although Switzerland does not purchase natural gas directly from Russia, the Congress imports natural gas from other European countries such as Germany.

At the same time, Switzerland's own natural gas reserve capacity is limited, and Switzerland natural gas accounts for 12%of the country's energy, mainly used for family heating.

In order to save energy, the relevant Swiss departments also came up with a lot of methods, such as roasting cakes without preheating the oven, or rinsed with hot water with cold water.
