Does anyone think there is an advantage economics wise to have time changes?

Question

Such as, we eat at different times, so would that help in anyway for the economy or anything? or the different times we would do a favorite activity?

or we'd be on the internet at different times, so would that help anything?

and by the way, i mean time zones, but i guess seasonal time changes works too

Answer 1

That's a very intelligent statement, the first I've seen today about the time change.

The time change was originally created by Benjamin Franklin because he was concerned by how much coal we used and how many trees we burned. By changing the time we turn on the lights less and burn less fuel. He has done more to reduce energy costs two hundred years ago than anything else ever has. He ain't on the hundred dollar bill for nothin'!

Answer 2

First of all, time zones are you used so we can do the same things at the same time no matter where you are in the world. If the whole world was on the same time zone then you would travel to places and it would be dark outside instead of light. Essentially you need time zones to provide for a economically stable global economy.

Answer 3

yes, key advantage is electricity used for lighting.
Sleeping while sun is up, and being awake when it's down is wasteful. The daylight saving tries to fix that by shifting an hour of sunlight from morning to evening.
