- The end of March signals the beginning of Daylight Saving Time - the method of moving clocks forward during warmer months so that darkness falls at a later time. It affects more than one billion people but several nations have proposed scrapping it, including the European Union. CNBC's Tom Chitty explains.

As someone who's lived in various states in the US and now living in Arizona, I would hate to go back to having daylight savings. Not only is it hard on the body when you keep switching your sleep schedule back and forth an hour, it's pretty pointless.
Exactly
Amanda Smith I know I never understood it either even as a kid growing up I always thought it was stupid, by the time people adjust to one they change it back to the other. I’d rather they stick to standard time and leave it there.
@@marwatson7408 the reason why we have daylight saving time
So that sunrise and sunset is 1 hour later time than the day before
@@tahmidabdin4625 Having a cousin who is a paramedic tell that to the police, fire departments paramedics, and hospitals car accidents increase the first two weeks of day light savings time because people have to adjust to them losing that one hr of sleep.
@@marwatson7408 all you need to do is follow your new time
Change the clocks the day before when clocks change happens
It’s really stupid to think that by turning the clock ahead by an hour, people are gonna save the daylight. Sedulously? Like are they thinking they are able to manipulate the actual sunlight? Instead of trying to save the daylight, people should try to update their daily routine according to the season.
Oh nice, so instead of being out in the hot summer for an extra hour, waste the sunlight by an hour in the morning. Without daylight saving, the sun would rise at 2 to 3 am in some countries. That's shit.
@@ayudhray1747 : Bullshit. Farmer and many people around the world don’t do their job by the clock but by the Sun. It’s stupid to think that by manipulating the clock, one would get an extra hour. People around the world where DST is not followed, don’t waste an extra hour out in the sun but rather change their daily routine and biological clock according to the season.
So, what really is shit is to believe one is getting an extra hour by advancing the clock by an hour in summer. Stupid people.
@@LuvvSURYA You know shit about it and probably never lived in Europe to understand it. Everyone rather wants the sun at 8pm in the evening rather than at 2am in the morning. If we keep the DST for the whole year, it will be dark in the morning until 9am. You are stupid, who doesn't understand the meaning. Why should anyone waste the sunlight at 2am in the morning, when by using DST you can get an extra hour of sunlight in the evening. Choosing one of the time will only bring depression and complications.
@@ayudhray1747
You don’t get extra daylight
You are only changing clocks forward by 1 hour for no reason
5am into 6am
Then you set clocks back 1 hour
8am into 7am
There’s 1 hour difference in time
@@tahmidabdin4625 lol this is why this day light saving thing is still going, people actually think they get more sunlight by changing the clocks
The video is wrong about daylight saving here in Brazil.
Thank God we got rid of this annoyance in 2019.
Good for you, here's hoping Britain catch up before I die, not likely.
You guys will have sell sunlight for the beaches
I believe that daylight saving time is a load of bull and should be scrapped.
It’s when we shift our time for no practical reason. Even the farmers out in Saskatchewan have dropped it.
No it's not. I rather have more daylight after work, than at 4.00 in the morning.
@@redwhite_040 you don’t get more daylight but it only changes the time on clock
Im living in a tropical country. It is summer here most time of the year. We don’t have daylight saving time.
I like Daylight Saving Time . Mary Babiec
I love how you wrote your name!! 😂🤣😂🤣👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
I do too … unpopular opinion I guess
Finally, the end of Daylight Saving Time!🙂
Summer time is the real earth time
@@theshield1613 no it’s not
Standard time also known as winter time is the real time
Daylight saving time or summer time doesn’t put our clocks synced to the sun which means we sleep less
Daylight saving time doesn’t make more daylight instead we wake start work and school earlier
I really fucking wish.
Permanent standard time is more aligned with natural sun time. The artificial springing forward has been shown to be associated with increased heart attack, stroke and sleep deprivation. Many people think its just one hour for one day, but medical science says otherwise. The reality is waking up earlier, especially in the darkness, disrupts our circadian rhythm, causing harmful effects on the body, and exposure to light later into the evening delays the brain’s release of melatonin, disrupting sleep time and quality. Research has shown people are much more sleep-deprived during daylight saving time. Natural is better.
' The artificial springing forward has been shown to be associated with increased heart attack, stroke and sleep deprivation.' I'm incredibly skeptical of this. The DST switch occurs at 2:00am on a Sunday when most of the population (those who work M-F/S will not be working so can either go to bed an hour earlier (what I do) or get up an hour later, in either case or or aside from it you still have a full day to recover till your start of the week (Monday). Furthermore, these days when most people have experienced international travel, they would have experienced the exact same thing crossing a time-zone when travelling longitudinally. Are we going to ban travel across time-zones too? For this reason I think any so called 'evidence' is bogus.
I like permanent daylight savings time. Having permanent standard time would mean you would have less daylight and more darkness.
I agree. Staying on standard time for the entire year would be the healthiest choice. Daylight Saving Time deceptively forces everyone up an hour early each day, tricking people into believing they have more sunlight. The same result can be achieved by simply waking up earlier voluntarily on standard time. Permanent DST would actually be worse than changing the clocks twice a year, since during the winter, most places would stay in the dark until 8 - 9 am.
Sunrise would be 4 or 4:30 am in June on standard time, but who really cares? I'm almost never up before 7am, so I'd sleep right through that. There would be 15 - 16 hours of sunlight, so many places would still see sun or twilight at 8pm.
It's better for the sun to be up several hours before you wake up than waking up in what feels like the middle of the night.
I am all for doing away with daylight saving time. I’m tired of always correcting people on saying “saving” and not “savings.”
Haha! Totally! It sounds like some kind of bank name.
I don't think it affects me at all . I'm close to the equator
But moving the clock ahead would be a loss of an hour is what I feel
As a person supporting UK client, day light savings creates a confusion.
I want to get rid of the time change as well. However, I want to keep our time as it is during the U.S. summer. I like the longer daylight in the evenings. I do not care if the sun is directly overhead at noon. I am not using it to tell the time.
Morning light is important because it reset our body clock and giving us more sleep . Evening light delays our body clock so we have trouble falling asleep at night and we tend to get up earlier. So we sleep less during spring and summer.
Standard time is the best solution because we have more light in the morning and we also get more sleep than DST
@Tahmid Abdin You're absolutely correct. DST is asynchronous with the human circadian rhythm. Standard time all year splits the daylength perfectly in two, before 12:00 noon and after 12 noon, creating a natural balance of melatonin and serotonin release. DST messes that up, causing insomnia and sleep deprivation. People then on the weekends have to sleep in later to make up for the loss of an hour of rest, further messing up their sleep schedule.
It's idiotic to change clock to "gain" time; it's more like robbing Peter to pay Paul. Let your body gradually adjust to the amount of daylight the way nature intended.
Hell with this approach of being comfortable without realising how it will affect clients from other countries.
Technically my work shift should end at 11PM after daylight saving. But clients prefer to change time even after daylight saving. Resulting me to work an hour more for some weeks so that it's comfortable for them.
Me who wakes up 10AM everyday to sunrise : My oldest enemy
@KMR correct
But change the clocks doesn’t create instead change the time of sunrise and sunset
Nice video.
UK - My vote would be to stick with BST (British Summer Time) all year. Sooner have an extra hour of daylight in the evening ALL year.
BST or daylight saving time is not good for your health because it gives more light in the evening and we will get less sleep
The best time is gmt or standard time because there’s more light in the morning and it will reset our body and also giving us more sleep which is good for you
So if I was you stick with standard time or gmt
Waking up in the dark is harder than waking up with light
Having earlier sunset we tend to go to bed early and get more sleep than those who has a later sunset
Provided employers continue to allow flex scheduling post COVID we should take this opportunity to end this antiquated practice in North America, I used to believe it benefitted the farming industry but this no longer appears to be the case.
In America, I want to stay on the summer time
I wouldn't mind to see the sun rising at 5:00, actually, in the part of Colombia where I live there's a "season" when the sun rises around 5:20. I believe that the goverments of those countries should encourage their population to adjust their schedules to the season instead of change the time.
It’s better to wake up 1 hour earlier because that’s what daylight saving time does
Clock change doesn’t create more daylight
We control time.
So it gets dark in UK at 4pm in winter. SURELY we can just put the clocks forward 5 hours so that its dark at 9pm!
We would adjust after one day
I would like to see it go away, at least on a trial basis. I like to leave things natural and maybe it will have a better effect on us in the long run. In July, I don't like the idea of it getting dark close to 9 pm.
If it makes you feel any better, the days are actually getting shorter in July
We don't celebrate daylight savings time in arizona so it doesn't effect us anyways
I do not messing with the clocks. in winter I wake early andcstoll get everything done. I also get better dleep asbit is darker lomger.
Thevbody naturally works with the movememt of the sun and sessions.
I get the SAME amoint of hours as thoes yhsy move the clocks "thinking" they are getting more time.
Why not keep it year round?
Daylight savings times should be ended. Now.
Daylight saving time doesn’t give more daylight
Daylight saving time is when you start your day earlier
Standard time 12pm 1pm 2pm
DST 1pm 2pm 3pm
See the difference
Changing the clock back means you start your day later
DST 12pm 1pm 2pm 3pm
Standard time 11am 12pm 1pm 2pm
During DST you start your day earlier
No one wants to start their day early
And getting up early
Dst makes telling cardinal directions more difficult.
In NJ I love the use of Daylight savings because I know darkness in the spring is delayed a bit longer. When it’s autumn 🍂 I like an hours worth of darkness to go watch hockey and sleep after.
It’s saving time not savings.
I live in NJ and despise the switch to DST. The mornings in March go from nice and bright to early January morning darkness overnight. It feels like a bad hangover that entire week.
The government is forcing you up for work one hour early, with the illusion of extra Daylight in the evening. News flash: You still get 15 hours of Daylight in June and 9 hours in December. Standard time all year is more natural. DST was never a thing until 1918. Technology has improved and energy-efficient lighting has taken over long since then. What may have helped 100 years ago is irrelevant and archaic today.
Instead of moving the clock they could have just moved their routine.
Permanent standard time is the only sensible way to end changing the clocks twice a year.
The lack of DST wouldn't make the summer solstice have any less daylight, just the clock time wouldn't have advanced.
So what if sunrise is 4 or 4:30 am? The summer solstice is longest day of the year, so that is normal. DST just makes 4am appear as 5am on the clock, so it is still just as early.
Most people use curtains and eye pillows in the summer months.
Permanent standard time will eliminate the November time change, since the clocks never went forward in the first place.
I hope they do the same here in the US! Hate it!
He needed extra daylight in the summer to hunt the bugs? Just hunt for longer in the summer, what's the problem? He wasn't hired worker anyway.
How is this democracy? 1 man has idiotic idea and millions of people have to suffer for that.
@@waluigi43 Millions of people decided to agree with his idea.
@@XOPOIIIO well changing clocks does not create extra daylight But it does change time on the clock ( sunrise and sunset)
Setting clocks forward 1 hour
Sunrise and sunset will be 1 hour later than the day before
Why can’t people just wake up earlier and get started with their day earlier? I don’t care how much daylight there is. You can catch me inside zzz how bout dat? Lol
Daylight Savings Time is basically summer time.
5:31 cutting short the mornings of already very short days in the winter would be extremely unpopular. Why talking about winter?? I'm confused, and could not understand this sentence. It does not talk about winter, does it?
Stop Daylight Saving Time! We all just need to show up to work 1 hour late.
If you want more daylight after work then go to work early and come out early.
I have never faced this as I live in India. Asian countries for life
CNBC - a New Dictionary for Planet
Scrap it!
Who else has trouble trying to comprehend daylight savings; one day you're waking up at 7am or 8am the next at 9 or 10am ??
In other video like gaming and comedy they get more than 100k likes but in knowledge videos 🙄 -1k🙄
This is more detailed than others I’ve seen on the subject, but most of the responses are still driven by a “lack of” knowledge
Nobody asks how is daylight time doing😢
I want to take 1 more hour to sleep.
So we are doing this BS because some dude wanted to catch bugs. Ok.
If you don't live in Europe, you wouldn't understand the problem.
His efforts to implement it failed. Perhaps people felt he could set his own hours
Why not keep Daylight Savings and dump Stand Time?
Noon +1 -1 is = noon
😮
Please Let Americans clock be still 🙏🏾🙄😪😔😒😭
I live in Argentina and have never even heard of DST. Now that I sort of know what it is, I KNOW it's the stupidest thing ever. It's not used here, thankfully
Argentina did change to daylight saving time but it is useless because it changes the time on the clock and doesn’t create more daylight
00:39 Ukraine does have a DST, your map is wrong.
Correct
Clocks in Ukraine does change
Clocks in the eastern part of Ukraine does not change as the follow Moscow standard time permanently
No clock changes in Luhansk and Donetsk
Changing the clocks is a practical response to the natural shift in sunlight. Skip the switch in March & relate the effects of first light/dawn at 5/5:30am by Summer Solstice
it's stupid Rather than changing the clock , you could simply chane your schedule
Doesn't Work, Check with People in North East, In Arunachal Pradesh You can have pitch dark sky by 6 o clock. They loose good amount of working hours due to this
@@shravansays all they need to do is change clocks forward 1 hour permanently
I dont understand daylight savings and it pisses me off
BOLLOX to BERLIN TIME, called British summer time here.
Day light saving time is stupid
No it is not. You are stupid. Who the hell wants the sun to rise at 3 am in the morning. It is better that the sun stays up until 9pm rather than rising at 3am
No it's not. I rather have more daylight after work, than at 4.00 in the morning.
@@ayudhray1747 exactly
This why we change clocks
Everyone is asleep at 3am so why don’t you change it to 4am
It’s the opposite in the winter
Changing the clocks does not create more daylight
It doesn’t matter to me but I prefer when it gets darker later in the evening
It’s doesn’t get dark later
We are only changing clocks forward 1 hour for no reason
Daylight only shifts depending on the season depending where you live
Keep it on the summer hours all yr long. So after school and work people can be in the light an hr. longer. There would be less depression also.
china dropped daylight saving not the europeans
It sounds stupid in my opinion. I mean why tf would it matter if your clock showed like 5 PM and it's dark outside? You DON'T need time to be EXACTLY in sync with the sunlight. 1hr difference literally doesn't matter
I HATE Daylight Savings!!! END IT!!!
F daylight savings 😒
I too feel this daylight saving is somewhat idiotic. But scientists have their own reasons for this. And I prefer to sit on the fence. I am a layman.
I feel it's just a big conspiracy to make the working class people like farmers and factory workers and industrial manufacturer workers ne able to work soon as the sun rises to produce more profits and income that can be taxed and used by the higher ups and the powers that be. Just my opinion and my outlook on it. I've worked in chemical plants for 15 years. I think DST creates more efficient use of the sunlight as a safety reason also because for financial risk/safety purposes...its not safe to work at 6:00 am if the sun isn't up yet. So they modify our sleep/ work hours so we can work as soon as the sun rises. It's all about financial gain for the people at the top of the economic food chain
Then stop using Daylight Saving.
At 12pm the sun should be in the middle of the sky = standard time. Daylight saving time is an utmost stupid idea forced upon millions of people "democracy".
Yeah but that’s not going to happen because all countries can decide their own time zones
Example
France is Greenwich mean Time plus 1
But the ideal time zones is gmt
France clock are 1 hour ahead of solar time in the winter
In the summer it’s 2 hour ahead of solar time because of daylight saving time
Unpopular opinion I guess, but I like DST.. it sets a rhythm.
It sucks...
Its a ridiculous artificial waste of time, a relic from the past and should be scrapped.
Please get rid of this
dont never ever turn your clocks back....why not start work 1 hour early
Why
Just that sunrise and sunset time is 1 hour early
This theory doesn't make any sense am from the Caribbean I don't know anything about time zones change.
WTF does not know
what daylight savings time is?
this doesnt apply to progammers
Why don't you just wake up earlier
Exactly and leave the clocks on standard time where it lets us wake up start work and school 1 hour later
This lets us sleep more
I just don’t like DLST.
Totally useless and confusing when more and more people are working from home.
And for those inhabiting either the Artic or Antarctic nobody gives a damn!
WTF what a mess, everybody should just eliminate it
It isn't a mess. It has it's advantages.
@@ayudhray1747 some countries use is and others don't and there is no rule to follow to know which ones do it and which ones don't... how is that not a mess? And yeah it has some advantages like the video mentioned but it has as many disadvantages so why not eliminate it? Like the video mentioned, the reason why it was created in the first place is no longer applicable so why continue it?
@@IReapZz95 What does it have to do with the other countries? Leave it on us. Don't bother with it. If we choose the summer time forever, it will be dark at 9 o clock in the morning. If we choose the winter time, the sun will rise at 2 o clock in the morning, which is a waste of sunlight. If you aren't European and never experienced it, I am sure, that you will never get it, why it is done till now.
@@ayudhray1747 I care about other countries because I have family all around and travel so dealing with the time zones is already a pain in the ass and if you add daylight savings to the mix it makes everything worse. I grew up in Madrid and it was still a waste of time back then. It made not different because in the winter it was dark going and leaving work either way
@@IReapZz95 you really want to wake up 1 hour early for the whole year
You change 1pm into 2pm
It will feel like as if the time was 1 hour early according to the old time zones
It’s better to stick with standard time where we start our day 1 hour later
