Why did Daylight Savings Time Start
Daylight saving has been in place in nearly all of the United States since the 1960s after being first tried in 1918.
Daylight saving time in the US was started as an energy conservation thing but it didn’t work out like that. The idea is that in the summer months, we shift the number of daylight hours we get into the evening. But this idea never seemed to work out. The electricity savings of taking advantage of more daylight in the evening turns out to be unclear or nonexistent.
Daylight Saving Time History
On July 1, 1908, Port Arthur, Ontario, Canada, was the first city in the world to enact Daylight saving time. The first state to adopt DST was Germany. Most jurisdictions abandoned DST in the years after the war ended in 1918, with exceptions including Canada, the United Kingdom, France, Ireland, and the United States.
And then after that, was widely adopted in America and Europe from the 1970s. Since then, the world has seen many enactments, adjustments, and repeals. The United States is currently in the process of making Daylight Time the permanent time across all participating states. Content source – Wiki
