“Together save energy”. On Friday, Economics and Climate Minister Robert Habeck promoted a new energy-saving campaign. His ministry is leading the way: Air conditioning systems are only switched on from 26 degrees. External lighting is minimized and only heated where necessary.

The Ministry of Economics and Climate Minister Robert Habeck (Greens) is leading by example. Immediate measures are now being taken in the ministry’s premises to become more climate-neutral when it comes to lighting, cooling and heating. This is the information from a letter that is available to the “Bild” newspaper.

The goal of Economics and Climate Minister Robert Habeck: All other ministries should follow suit and become climate-neutral by 2030. Habeck only advertised on Friday with a new campaign for saving energy.

With the new campaign under the motto “80 million together for the energy change”, Federal Economics and Climate Protection Minister Robert Habeck is promoting energy saving. “Get involved,” Habeck advertised at the launch of the campaign on Friday in Berlin. “Anyone who saves energy helps Germany become less dependent on Russian imports and does something for the climate.”

Advertisements are planned on digital display boards, for example at train stations, on the Internet and in social networks. There is also a telephone hotline and events. The motto refers to the population of Germany, where according to the Federal Statistical Office last 83.2 million people lived. The campaign is also aimed at companies.
