Daylight Saving Time is hot garbage

The concept of Daylight Saving Time was introduced as a joke, doesn’t actually save energy, isn’t great for our health, and not everyone even does it. So why are we losing sleep and confusing ourselves?

#Daylight #Saving #Time #hot #garbage
I live in Saskatchewan and we don’t have DST, so half the year we are on Alberta time, the other half Manitoba.
How hard is it to adjust your clocks TWICE a year?
It seems to work psychologically upon people. Now base this upon every individual, excluding any particular age per person were this is applied by region on the planet. It is messing up the overall health of far to many people. Abolish it !!!
The Verge is cold garbage
every verge video as of late is hot garbage
daylight saving’s time is racist too. and you white lady NOT addressing that is ALSO racist.
Jeeze… am I the only one whos never lost any sleep or been late because of daylight savings.… I mean, I dont care if it goes away but it was such small non existent issue to me that I couldn’t even describe it as a minor inconvenience… it was only twice a year for christ sake…
How is this tech news???????
The parliament of Finland has received a petition with over 50 000 signatures demanding the abolishment of daylight saving time.
ONLY TWO THINGS I DESPISE ABOUT LIVING IN THE US:
this time switching BS and standard system
Idiot.She has no idea what DST is or she wouldn’t suggest it be used all year and kids be sent off to school in the dark. IT MOVES WASTED DAYLIGHT FROM THE MORNING TO THE EVENING, MORON.
I’d rather go on the original standard time all year. This means we get less light in the evening than when we on daylight savings time effectively meeting solar time that we get extra light in the morning. Sunset hours are one hour earlier on standard time than when daylight savings time is used but the sunrise hours come earlier and we get more light in the morning. Why don’t we stay on permanent solar time all year?
It’s cool that the sunset hours in the summer are one hour earlier than normal when standard time is used rather than using daylight savings time keeping the same time zone what is regarded as solar time like the solar noon is at 12 noon and the sun is directly over one’s head. Daylight savings time is usually when the solar noon is at 1 pm and time is one hour ahead of solar time. I’d rather we go without the practice of daylight savings time and keep permanent solar time as standard time all year making the sunset hours one hour earlier than normal in the summer so we get one extra hour of daylight in the morning to meet solar time and the solar noon is at 12 noon not at 1 pm (1 o’clock in the afternoon).
I hate daylight savings time being used all year like it’s permanent.
Your vape video is bullshit
Another lovely present left to us by the Baby Boomers. Thanks jerks.
I read that its a Conspiracy made by Banks so they can make more money because “Conspiracy”
just use Avasva Solutions :)))
I live here in Florida but Make Florida Stay on one time year round Daylight savings and leave it alone Because. We don’t need more Children standing in the dark waiting for a 🚌 just Make the School Hours For Children From 9AM-4PM
The Verge is trying to be the next Buzzfeed
I can’t believe only 2 states have stoped it. Why hasn’t it been 35?
You don’t get more daylight in the evening with DST , you are just setting your clock up an hour so it s e e m like you are. Actually it is an hour shorter.
Kentucky is on the same border line as Arizona yet they voted it in. We have really hot summers to.
I live here in Florida in the sunshine state And I don’t like that we have to fall back one hour every November Because I Rather have Daylight at the end of the day because It’s not very appealing to wake up in the early morning daylight to do stuff because people are too tired in the mornings and they have to use that Extra hour of daylight in the mornings during the winter months and It’s not as exciting being on Standard time because it’s only 10:31 PM because If We didn’t switch the time back One hour It would had already be 11:31 PM but since it’s only 10:33 PM Instead of 11:33 PM we have to stick to standard time now because it feels really late Because Of us now being on standard time So I think We should stay on Daylight savings year round because it would had already been 12:45 AM But since we had to fall back one hour last night unfortunately it’s only 11:45 PM. I don’t have that much time these days to get my Walks in before the sun goes down between 5:30-6 PM way to early for the sun to set
Shut up with your Commie BS!
It’s too depressing during the winter when it gets dark too early during the winter
How about we move the clocks to permanent DST?
But that would make since… WE CAN“T HAVE THAT!!!!
I LOVE daylight saving time
Please Get Rid Of Daylight Saving Time
I’m with you. Pick one or the other, I don’t care. It’s the switching back and forth that is the main problem. However, while no one ever mentions it, Daylight Saving Time always comes during the months of the year when, especially here in the desert Southwest, an extra hour of sunlight is the LAST thing we need! Anyone who lives below about 35 degrees latitude probably is not a big fan of DST. Arizona has it right. They stay on Mountain Standard Time 365 days a year.
You should do real research on why daylight saving was enacted. This is a horrible video explaining why it really exists. But I do agree that it is no longer needed.
I bet i could check Verge site this time last year and the year before and find the same story, just different authors
How about you Americans focus on switching to the Metric System and saving us all in the rest of the world the hassle of keeping up with your quirkiness
Saskatchewan has known this from the beginning; never had DST, never will.
Are you going to post the same video every year? Let it go.
All this mess..cuz a dude wanted to catch bugs
hot Nerd
More the clock two hour back
THIS IS STUPID IN VEGAS ITS TOO HOT DURING SUMMER WHY PUT US IN THE SUN MORE
I actually like it lighter later. How about let’s quit flip-flopping and just stay on DST.
Simple answer humans are idiots
There’s more light to enjoy in the evening because the Sun sets later.
Iit actually lowers overall traffic accidents over time (not the the immediate day after sure) because more people are driving between 5pm-7pm which is given more light then between 5am-7am when we impose extra darkness.
It is shown to lower the crime rate in that same 5–7pm window, whereas there is nearly zero crime rate to benefit from it being darker between 5am-7am.
So people’s health suffers and more accidents happen? That means there’s money to be made. I’ll be surprised if DST ends now.
A cynical take perhaps.
My state voted against daylight savings in 1992 after having it for 3 years previously. So we haven’t had it for the past 29 years 🙂
Exactly
Only the switch itself is not causing the problem on it’s own.
Each person has a biological component to when it is easier for them to go to sleep and arbitrarily changing the clock will not change this.
What we need is not daylight savings time but the standard time.
Infact year round daylight savings time was a thing at one time in the USA but it did not take long for them to change it back.
Why do you think that is ?
Daylight savings time is unnatural to the human body and should be done away with all together.
The only people who might benefit from it are business in regards to making more money.
The only problem is everyone else pays for it in health.
