> Our bodies don't really time to the sun anymore
So because we _can_ disregard the sun, we should? I have lights in my home, but the sun still shines in the windows in the morning and on my head while I walk to work. I'd rather have sane policy than worry about always having a portable SAD light available in the winter mornings.
- jedberg 6y agoOne hour either way won't make a difference. If you need a SAD light, you'll need it with either time zone. Keep in mind that even with our existing time zones, people can live near one edge or the other, where there is already almost an hour difference between when the sun comes up locally.
- pkulak 6y agoI still contend that it _does_ matter. As someone north of the 45th, if we're adding daylight somewhere, I want it added when my body is supposed to be waking up, not going to sleep.
- Wowfunhappy 6y agoBut that's just not true? Getting one more or less hour of sleep can make a huge difference to your health and well-being.
