Are sundials one hour slower in summer due to gmt?
Sundials are one hour slower in the summer in places that use Daylight Saving Time. They aren't slower 'due to GMT'. GMT, or standard Universal Time, (UCT, I believe) remains the same all year regardless of where you are; GMT is not adjusted for Daylight Saving Time. You could, of course, turn your sundial to adjust for Daylight Saving Time, but if you are that interested in accurate time, you probably would not rely on a sundial.
Does Daylight Saving Time impact greenwich mean time?

When did Daylight Saving Time move from April to March?
Daylight Saving Time is four weeks longer since 2007 due to the passage of the Energy Policy Act in 2005. The Act extended Daylight Saving Time by four weeks from the second Sunday of March to the first Sunday of November, with the hope that it would save 10,000 barrels of oil each day through reduced use of power by businesses during daylight hours. Unfortunately, it is exceedingly difficult to determine energy savings from Daylight Saving Time and based on a variety of factors, it is possible that little or no energy is saved by Daylight Saving Time.
