It still might be peak summer, but German undertakers operating crematoriums warn they’re at risk of running out of natural gas amid the unprecedented energy crunch.

Russian NatGas supplies have been reduced to just 20% of capacity as prices jumped 30% last week and electricity prices soared to a record, which indicates undertaker costs are getting more expensive.
