Time Shift: The Economic Impact of Daylight Saving Time
Daylight Saving Time — a simple clock adjustment with far-reaching consequences. As countries debate whether to keep, ditch, or make DST permanent, the economic and health implications of this time-shifting practice are coming under increasing scrutiny.
Skip Montreux and Samantha Vega explore the origins, impact, and ongoing debate surrounding Daylight Saving Time (DST). From its wartime beginnings to modern economic studies, they examine how DST affects everything from energy consumption to productivity, retail sales, and even public health. Along the way, they discuss what different countries around the world are doing — or not doing — with their clocks.
D2B 362 unpacks the global clock conundrum of Daylight Saving Time — from economic costs to health effects — and the growing calls to rethink how we manage time.
