Daylight Savings Time is a relic of the previous century that has outlived its usefulness.
Most people in the US rely on artificial light for work and home during our waking hours and industry has significant energy efficiency measures in place. Is there any evidence that DST is needed in the present day?
Studies have consistently shown that DST can have a significant impact on people's body clocks, negatively affecting sleep patterns and alertness. This directly leads to decreased productivity and increased risk of accident.
The so-called energy saving benefits, if any, do not outweigh the drawbacks or potential losses.
