High prices due to war in Iran

145

The war in Iran causes high costs. Energy in Germany becomes expensive. Many people use less energy now. A new survey shows this. About 2 of 3 people save power.

Many people heat less. Others save electricity. They switch off devices completely. They avoid the Stand-by-Betrieb. Many do not use their car. They ride bikes more often.

The price for oil rises further. There is no fast solution for the war. The USA and Iran fight. This makes the world market nervous. A barrel of oil costs much more money.

Not only energy becomes expensive. Oil for cars is rare. This hits the car industry hard. Even food costs more soon. Fertilizer for fields becomes more expensive.

Also metals like aluminium cost more money. People need this for cans or cars. Experts say: Many products in daily life become expensive. A fast end of high prices is not near.
