So people think they actually get an extra hour of sunlight? And they’re cool with it being dark until after 8am though?
Being dark at 8 a.m. or 5 p.m. is wash. Most people are up at both times.
Well ya...people are at work in the morning. Who cares if it’s dark. But they are home in the evenings when they can enjoy some sunlight. Having natural light when one is home means not having to turn the lights on as early. I think it may help some folks with seasonal depression.
Turning the clocks back means it’s dark when you leave in the morning to go to work, and dark when your work day has ended. It means power usage at both ends of the day for longer periods of time.
Since companies want to be consistant in their hours, it leaves us having to cope with lighting issues. Regardless of what a clock says, there are so many hours in a day and as those days shorten, using that light to our advantage is key.
It’s abeautiful thing to see a sunrise, but if you’re at work when that happens, then it’s nice to enjoy a sunset after work. If you havetomiss them both..that sux.
