Re: Would leaving the clocks alone save energy?

I think it started in the early 1900,s, I am not sure but it was to make sure farm workers were able to work in daylight early in the morning.
Lots of countries still change their clocks, which makes for interesting travel times.........
Personally I love the leap forward, lots more time outside after work and dread the way they go backwards in Autumn.
Congratulations Naturelover on all those posts and your new birds.
