Daylight Saving Time (DST) is the practice of setting the clocks forward one hour from standard time during the summer months, and back again in the fall, in order to make better use of natural daylight. So today we still have people deciding if we should keep doing it ?

Less than 40% of the countries in the world use DST. Some countries use it to make better use of the natural daylight in the evenings. The difference in light is most noticeable in the areas close to the Poles, i.e. furthest away from the Earth’s Equator.

Some studies show that DST could lead to fewer road accidents and injuries by supplying more daylight during the hours more people use the roads. Other studies claim that people’s health might suffer due to DST changes.

DST is also used to reduce the amount of energy needed for artificial lighting during the evening hours. However, many studies disagree about DST’s energy savings and while some studies show a positive outcome, others do not.
Either way here in the States we still practices this method and the people at the bars and clubs love it.  

“Plus a great excuse to be late Monday for work.  Say you forgot to change the alarm time.”

Stay in school and start reading books again with the new or lost hour you have this time of the yet your reading this Daylight Saving Time 2016.

God Bless-
