Hamburg, the largest non-capital city in the European Union, has warned that it could ration be forced to hot water as the Russian energy crisis causes chaos.

Jens Kerstan, environment senator for Germany's second biggest city, told German newspaper Welt am Sonntag on Saturday that Hamburg could restrict availability of hot water to certain times of days "in an acute gas shortage."

"We are in a much worse crisis than most people realize," Kerstan said in a separate interview with the Hamburger Abendblatt on Sunday. He urged people to take shorter showers, avoid full baths, and install modern thermostats and water-saving shower heads.

Let them reap what they sow. Coming soon to a state near you. We’re following their proven insanity.

Of course the Davos creeps live in mansions with 10 bathrooms. Although Pelosi never looks like she showers.

Back when I was in high school, we had a thing called “Hunky showers”. It was no shower at all. It was something you did at the end of gym class when there wasn’t enough time to take a real shower. You’d just douse yourself with a huge amount of after-shave, and off you’d go to the next class.

Perhaps Germany should institute mandatory Hunky showers.

Disclaimer #1: Hunky was short for Hungarian. I’m of Hungarian descent, and the phrase never offended me. Heck, 3/4 of my classmates were children or grandchildren of Eastern Europeans. Nothing but a bunch of Hunkies!

Disclaimer #2: I’ve heard this type of “shower” being referred to by other terms as well.

Germany is one of the most popular destinations for immigrants in the world, with well over 1 million people moving there each year since 2013..... wonder if maybe that was a bad plan?

Glad I learned to boil water over a campfire while in the Boy Scouts...before BSA went all faggoty.

While man made climate change is a fake, man made shortages are real.

Low cost energy is the road to wealth, solar and wind generator are not low cost and will fail you when you need energy the most.

We have technology to burn coal cleanly, we have nuclear power and there is always hydro-electric. Each of these forms of energy generation is being blocked by environmentalist (read communist) to bring western nations to their knees.

Any politician that even suggest climate change is real should be removed from office.

The proof of any damage to the environment along with the cost of providing that proof should be shifted to the environmentalist.

And, even if the environment could be damaged that damaged should be weight against the good low cost energy provides for society.

In that case, I don’t imagine they’d mourn the lack of showering.

Seems to me Russia is doing just fine energy wise. And every other way as far as I can see. The west however is stuck in a cycle of self inflicted shortages and inflation.

Germany has had one of the most ambitious efforts in the world to convert to “green energy”.
