Most of the U.S. will 'fall back' during Sunday's wee hours. Many sleep researchers say daylight saving time does more harm than good.

strains our mystic chords of memory, there is at least a small bit of good news: You can have one extra hour of sleep tonight.

to the candy industry, which for decades has wanted to extend the length of time that kids can go trick-or-treating, hoping for increased candy sales.on whether the practice actually reduces energy consumption. But sleep researchers are in agreement that it does more harm than good.the U.S. should eliminate seasonal time changes in favor of standard time fixed throughout the year.

NPR needs to be defunded. They are communist propaganda

Why is Congress waiting on the DOT to weigh in on this?

Vote DST out!

Too little too LATE!!!!

Stop this insanity- end this daylight savings time.DaylightSavingTime

Unless you have an autoimmune disorder. Then the weeks around the fall time change are quite painful.

Misleading. The article itself seems to be saying that it's the *time shifts* that cause problems, not DST specifically.

A lot a people just can’t handle life.

Yes, daylight savings time as is antiquated as yeoman farmers.

We need to rid it.

The hour you gain never makes up for the hour you lost.

Not the first to post and won’t be the last: “Only a white man would believe that you could cut a foot off the top of a blanket and sew it to the bottom of a blanket and have a longer blanket.”

Car accidents on the Monday after Spring Forward are usually pretty brutal.

Especially for those of us with kids or puppies. They don’t care what time it is when they wake!

Let's increase the length of a rope by cutting 1m off the bottom and adding 1m to the top😂

Lol! And imagine ships crew crossing Atlantic and Pacific Ocean changing their clock everyday. 🙂

Good, now let's switch it back and stop daylight savings!!!

Wide awake 4:30 am Monday🤦‍♂️

I hate it so much. I want my evening hour back!

Keep daylight savings year around. I love having that extra daylight during the vast majority of the year.

locktheclock

Can I refuse to turn my clock back? I don’t want a single minute more in 2020

Agree

TrumpPlague TrumpLied230KDied

Good reason to move to either Arizona or Hawaii, they don't have to deal with this time change. 😊

Sorry ....... LOVE DST ....... ☀️☀️☀️☀️☀️☀️☀️☀️

California voted to END THIS. What happened to our vote!?

Yes

Happy to be in AZ where we don’t change our clocks.

End DST. I wouldn't be disappointed if we had fall back one last time and stayed there.

”Saving time” is an absurd concept.

WPSU It's dumber than our president, and that's saying something

Read my twitters to get an overview, OR, See all the evidences of B-i-d-e-n family’s crime at: G N E W S . O R G It’s not a VOTE to choose left or right, it’s a VOTE to lead U.S. to go crime or democracy!

Why don’t we get rid of this?

Double DST all year round, please. Winter is miserable enough even without standard time.

Yeah no. I can't.

Ya mean I can’t sleep till the crack of noon?

Literally no one needs daylight savings

And so does EVERY parent with a small child...

And every parent said....amen!

Damn that Benjamin Franklin.

how do we go about actually stopping it though?

Fall back is a scam someone please fire this stupid system!

jonlovett

Not night shift

Do we really want to an extra hour of 2020?

I think it’s the switching back and forth that’s harmful. Make daylight savings time permanent so there’s more evening light. Nobody gives a shit about morning anyway. Morning is something to get through.

Pls end DST!!!

It does a lot more harm than good and should be ended.

Only NPR could turn getting an hour extra of sleep into a negative.

No shit...

Need to eliminate DST. Anyone who thinks they need more hours of sunshine in the summer need to get up an hour earlier and go to work early and leave early. I hate getting up in the dark and getting home in the dark. At least on standard time I get some morning sun.

Every year this is posted. Could it actually just happen?

DST puts kids in the dark waiting for school busses. Eliminate it.

So how do we stop doing it? I’d like to.

It’d really be something if we could actually get +/- hours of daylight by simply changing a clock

end this stupidity. if either presidential candidate ran on this, i'd be a single-issue voter.

Who gives a fuck... we haven’t slept in 4 years of this shit hole admin - but goody gumdrops daylight savings is on...

Abolish this crap already

If congress really wanted to be popular, they would vote to stop this nonsense. The sun shines so many hours of the day. We can’t change that.

Daylight Saving is great, make it standard

I've lived in a state without DST for 29 years, and it's a relief not to have to deal with it.

Yeah. Agree. It's time to end DST. Just go to standard time year-round.

It’s stupid.

My baby wakes up every day at 530. That just became 430 with DST. Not stoked.

Yes it does!!! Worst thing ever. Go to work in dark. Come home in dark. Exactly who are they saving daylight for? It’s not me!!

Soon it will be dark at 3:45 pm in WA state. I really want year-round DST. Besides, my dog won’t get the memo and will get me up at 6:45 tomorrow!

Can someone put out a positive article for a change. Seems like everything does more harm than good.

Explain that to the 49th parallel!

Only a fool could believe that cutting a foot off the bottom of a blanket and sewing it to the top makes the blanket longer.

you don't say

Best news I’ve had all year

Standard time is OVER. Daylight Savings. There’s nothing in the morning worth ST.

Its like the dark side of the moon when the time changes.

U know why it does more harm than good? Bcuz man has changed times and seasons away from how they were originally made by the Most High leave it alone! Who made yall god

Agreed, as mentioned in my book, The Happy Clam. Can I send you a copy?

jonlovett

Good luck you non-AZ suckers!

Agreed

Just another example of politicians thinking they have to 'do something' and screwing something up.

You clearly don’t have a dog who doesn’t care about falling back or springing forward. 🙄

It's backwards...KEEPING daylight savings time would be better (NOT falling back in fall so it gets dark at 5 in late November). Most 1st shift people would agree that it sucks that it's sunny ONLY while they're chained to a desk or machine.

A friend of mine compared getting an extra hour in 2020 is like getting a bonus track on a Yoko Ono CD.

I don’t want an extra hour of 2020. No.

Stop this nonsense.

🤗

Blursday Sleep researchers studies prior to Covid and possibly Trump's Murika?

Yay another hour of 2020.

I hope to live long enough to see daylight saving time thrown into the dustbin of history where it belongs. Light belongs in the morning not the evening.

an extra hr of 2020 is like a bonus track on a yoko ono album

Yeah but this is the good one so make the change next time.

Researchers from Duh Magazine?

I will be asleep by 6:30pm tomorrow night.

I love fall back, and extra hour! never happy about spring forward but then summer is coming so that makes it tolerable,

Can we 'fall back' 4 years, that would help America greatly!

Hah, joke’s on you! I have a newborn.

Eliminate it! Keep the summer hours all year long 🙏🏻

NPR does more harm than good and they're still around.
