minus-squareShowroom7561@lemmy.calinkfedilinkarrow-up2·8 months agoYou can keep repeating that, but waking up earlier doesn’t change what time the sun goes down at night. Very few people have the option to “start work earlier”, or start school earlier. They work when they work. It really seems like a lot of effort to compensate, when it requires no effort the way it is.

Holy fuck No, we change the time on our clocks to collectively benefit from a later sunset. Business hours don’t change. What I’m proposing is to do it ONCE and then nobody ever has to worry about it ever again! You’re proposing that everyone suffer through earlier sunsets in the summer, but haven’t explained why it would be a good thing.
