Or, why is the solution not "who cares, we have electric lights."?
- peeters 9y agoBecause daylight has positive effects on most people's wellbeing?
- dee-see 9y agoI live in a place where winters are long, days are short and skies are either gray or dark. Having the opportunity to see the sun even for a couple of minutes when coming out from work is a great feeling that has a big impact on people's mood and mental health especially at the tail end of winter. Electric lights don't have that effect. I also spend more of my non-working time outside and I'd love to be able to go out for a run without a headlamp earlier in the year.
