Don’t forget tonight, you have to set your clocks forward one hour. If you’re like me, your tired of changing the time twice a year. Does it really save any energy at all? According to recent studies in Indiana, over $8.6 billion USD was spent on extra energy used. What does this mean? This means because of the change, while we actually did save money on lighting, we actually use more energy because of air conditioning and heating. We also might spend more time indoors, thus using more electricity watching tv, playing games, and so on.

I’m gonna go ahead and say it’s still inconclusive. There probably should be a lot more studies done to get more conclusive results. While the study in Indiana is one thing, it’s not the entire country. Perhaps in the future, we’ll find that we don’t have to change the time anymore. Wouldn’t that be a lucky thing?

Do you have to change your clock where you live?
