Tooting my own horn
I’m starting to feel guilty about this because it’s been happening so often…
Unfortunately I didn’t post this one on my blog but I did talk to many friends about how I didn’t understand how changing daylight savings would save energy. The reason I didn’t understand how it would save energy is the exact reason why it DIDN’T SAVE ENERGY:
For example, households may draw less electricity for lights at night, but will use more power in the early in the day as they wake to darker and chillier mornings.
I’d like to see how much this actually costed the economy due to the confusion and tech changes that were needed.
