"Why Do We Still Change Our Clocks for Daylight Saving Time in 2024?"

TL;DR Summary
As daylight saving time approaches, the debate over whether to make the time change permanent or eliminate it altogether continues. While some experts advocate for permanent standard time due to its alignment with our body's natural clock and potential health benefits, others argue that daylight saving time saves energy, prevents traffic injuries, and reduces crime. If daylight saving time were permanent, it would result in later sunsets and darker mornings during the winter months, raising safety concerns for morning commuters and school children.
