I’m still pondering the reason behind daylight saving time. What’s its purpose? Did we actually save any daylight?
Daylight Saving Time (DST) was originally introduced during World War I and later during World War II to conserve energy by making better use of daylight. The idea was that by shifting an hour of daylight from the morning to the evening, people would rely less on artificial lighting and, therefore, save energy.
However, the effectiveness of DST in terms of energy conservation is still debated. Some studies suggest that the savings are minimal, while others point to benefits in areas like increased outdoor activity and reduced traffic accidents. Ultimately, the practice has its proponents and critics, and its purpose has evolved over time. Many people also appreciate the longer evenings, especially during the summer months! What are your thoughts on it?
