What is daylight savings?
What is daylight savings?
user
It’s the practice of moving the clocks forward or back an hour to create more even and consistent sunlight hours during the day.
assistant
But no one likes that the sun goes down so early in winter.
user
No one likes to lose an hour of daylight.
assistant
It's true. So if no one likes it, what's the point?
user
The point is to align our clocks with natural time.  This means more sunlight during the daytime, which is good for people, plants, animals, ecosystems, farms, factories, infrastructure, and so on.
assistant
What would happen if we stopped changing the clocks?
user
Wouldn't happen.
assistant
Probably not.
user
Probably not.  Why?
assistant
Everyone seems committed to standard time in the winter, and daylight savings in the summer. It doesn't make sense to me, but it is what it is.
