Well as we get more nothern in our world, summer means from 16 to 22 sunlight
hours a day while winter means 2 to 8 hours of sunlight. So in the summer its
nice to shift so we can shoot a round of golf after work but in the winter, its
nice not to have to go to school or work in the dark. It is also a lot more sfe
for kids to walk to school in sunlight rather than in the dark.
