Hey, Superdry and Scotch & Soda. We're in an energy crisis, and the climate crisis hasn't gone away yet either. What about closing your giant shop doors, like many others do? It's 3⁰C outside and you're wasting energy.

Many shops still leave their doors wide open, despite the energy crisis. Nu.nl checked 600 shops in 10 Dutch cities, and 60% are still keeping their doors open, wasting natural gas and fanning climate change.

Veel winkels laten deuren wagenwijd open ondanks energiecrisis

Ondanks de energiecrisis houden veel winkels hun deuren de hele dag open. Slechts een minderheid sluit de deur om de warmte binnen te houden en te besparen op de stookkosten, blijkt uit onderzoek van NU.nl.

@Sustainable2050 I lived in San Antonio Texas where it was common for stores to have doors open with A/C on during 100 degree F weather. I laugh when people say we “need” the same amount of energy that we have been using. Same with the size of cars - we “need” this amount of oil or batteries because that’s what we are currently using.
