The energy savings of extended Daylight Savings Time in modern society are questionable. The energy for lighting tends to move to the morning, used by those who must rise well before the adjusted hour of dawn during the winter. During the summer, energy savings used to come from all the extra outdoor activity that was done in the long evenings before sunset, but with so much of our activity now done indoors, the savings may be lost to the costs of air conditioning residences after work in a hotter part of the day. There is a concern regarding the safety of children walking to school or waiting for a bus in the winter before dawn because of the adjusted time, especially in the more northerly parts of the country.

One of the most common reasons given is safety. In the winter, daylight savings time tends to put children out going to school when it is still quite dark. Going back to standard time makes for at least a little daylight when most of the kids go out.
