Summary
Most European countries moved clocks forward one hour on Sunday, marking the start of daylight saving time (DST), a practice increasingly criticized.
Originally introduced during World War I to conserve energy, DST returned during the 1970s oil crisis and now shifts Central European Time to Central European Summer Time.
Despite a 2018 EU consultation where 84% of nearly 4 million respondents supported abolishing DST, implementation stalled due to member state disagreement.
Poland, currently holding the EU presidency, plans informal consultations to revisit the issue amid broader geopolitical priorities.
That’s not changed by adjusting clocks, it’s changed by adjusting work hours.
This makes no sense. Changing the number on the clocks isn’t what makes you change your sleep/wake cycle AT ALL. It’s changing when the working day starts that does that.
Uh yeah, that’s what I said.
I score zero for reading comprehension!
