Daylight Savings Time Explained Video | Why Do We Spring Forward & Fall Back Each Year?

It’s that time of year again when those of us in certain parts of the world put our clocks back an hour to move back into the normal time zone. It’s the end of Daylight Savings Time.

But what is Daylight Savings Time? And why do we have to spring forward each year just to fall back again months down the line? This video explains all.

Daylight Savings Time has a long history, but I’m one of those people who think it should be abandoned now. I can see why some argue for its continued use, but I’d rather just let the seasons dictate when it’s light and when it’s dark.

This video does a great job of explaining all about the history and reality of Daylight Savings Time. And I’m guessing the creator is a DST skeptic. As all right-thinking people tend to be.
