To the governments of the United States and other so-called developed nations.
To the telephone and transportations companies of the world.
To those in AUTHORITY.
Some AUTHORITY declared that at 2am Sunday November 7 we are supposed to set our clocks back an hour.* We say NO! We will not set our clocks back. We will continue to enjoy daylight during the time of day we want to enjoy it!
Making Daylight Savings Time year round will improve health by minimizing the impact of SADS and providing more daylight hours for recreation and outdoor activities.
We petition you, the masters and mistresses of clocks around the world, to recognize that most people prefer daylight into the early evening, even in Winter, and to extend Daylight Savings Time year round so that we may all benefit from better health and happiness.
*excluding residents of Hawaii (which still wants its Queen back) and Arizona (which is trying hard to secede from the U.S.,with the exception of the Navajo Nation inside Arizona who have rationally chosen to observe daylight savings)
Yours truly,
The citizens of a sunlit planet.
STOP changing the clocks twice a year. Keep it ahead, keep it behind, or spring forward 1/2 hour then LEAVE it!

Time change is totally unnecessary...1 hour is not a major improvement to anything nor does it help anyone.

Please PLEASE stop the nonsense! No more changing. It's an adjustment no matter where you live. The best 'time' I had was when I lived in northern Indiana before they joined the dark side. Same time all year around was the best. Please end this.

Standard time needs to be abolished! Daylight Savings time is a much more healthy way to live. There are more heart attacks right after the time change than at any other time of the year. Even my animals are confused every time we "fall back and spring ahead." I see there are many who propose we keep Standard Time, which makes no sense to me. Standard Time needs to go!

It's so much better to enjoy light at the end of the day rather than in the morning. It gives people more time to do activities after work or after school in the daylight!

Yes, please, everywhere should stay on DAY LIGHT SAVINGS Time!
It's depressing and bad for one's mental and physical health getting off of their 10 hour (supposed to be 9-5) day job in the dark. Everyone needs more Vit D3 for their mood, & immune system; especially, with the COVID-19, and would like to see a couple of hours of sunshine after work to walk the dog, do yard work, play with their kids, wash their car, jog; etc. Majority of people have night blindness; thus, slower drivers and more wrecks in rush hour traffic. & since smoking is no longer fashionable, there are hardly any smokers who have to wake up at the crack of dawn to get their nicotine fix. It's not like we still are in the 19th century and have to wake up early in the sun to feed the live stock or plow the fields. It's the 21st century, time to PROgress. Besides a time change is terrible for your circadian rhythm which regulates, not only sleep, but every cell process in your body.

Just pick one time. Preferably DST, but changing is beyond ridiculous
