British families have been asked to turn down their heating by 1C to reduce the West's dependency on gas from Russia.
The world's energy watchdog has announced a 10-point plan which aims to reduce the amount of Russian gas being sent to the European Union (EU) by more than a third.
Turning down thermostats by 1C would save 10billion cubic metres of gas in the coming year alongside other efforts such as windfall tax on fossil fuel firms.
