Could some one give some arguments? permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [โ] angrystego@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago* (1 child) Most people work or go to school in the morning. They can get up an hour earlier, but then they have just this one hour that they can enjoy before going to work. It's not enought to meet friends, go for a longer walk or trip, or anything really. If the enjoyable hoir moves to the afternoon, it can be merged with the rest of the evening spare time and enjoyed better. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [โ] connected0@feddit.org 1 point 1 year ago (1 child) But if this is the consensus, that things should start earlier, then why not start them earlier, and leave the clock alone? Let the clock be a device that says, when the sun is roughly in its zenith. Work begin time or school begin time are fairly superstitious and can be changed. I don't see a reason to change the clock. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [โ] angrystego@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago I think that would be as hard to achive as the abolition of time changes, maybe harder.

It could happen, but I don't think it's the easier way. permalink fedilink source parent
