You know, instead of making us change our clocks, we could simply have changed our work hours. Whilst working in nurseries and grafting jobs, We’d be unacking our tools on the job as the sun peeked over. Start as soon as one could see. The only relativity the time had, was that the weather report always says what time the sun rises.
Not this same old same old again.🙄
“This study found that western edge residents had higher rates of obesity, diabetes, heart disease and breast cancer, as well as lower per capita income and higher health care costs. Other research has found that rates of certain other cancers are higher on the western edge of a time zone.”
Presumably based on states on the East coast of the USA.
It’s full of dubious stuff like that.
An article presenting both sides would be good.

That is the reason us in WA love daylight saving.
Yes, yes it does. Every fricking time someone starts crapping on about DLS and how wonderful it is I nearly have a brain fail.
It’s not needed here in Queensland in summer, but I wouldn’t mind too much if it were used in winter to get a bit more daylight at the end of the day.
The mornings would of course be a disaster. :)
Let’s face it, Daylight Saving was a fad from the days when “getting out in the summer sun” was thought to be perfectly healthy, and summer temperatures weren’t on an ever-upward climb.
I really can’t see any excuse for continuing with it, given all the inconvenience and the evidence for detrimental health effects.
According to Hannah Fry, Daylight saving is a waster of time

I love watching her videos.
I wish she’d been my Maths Professor at uni.
