Daylight Saving Time was originally introduced as an energy saving measure, to take greater advantage of the daylight during the summer months.
because it was important
Starting in 2007, daylight saving in New Zealand is observed from the last Sunday in September until the first Sunday in April.
Daylight Saving Time was introduced before electricity was in use. It's primary implementation was to save candles by shifting people's waking hours. There is no actual affect on the amount of time that passes. It is simply a practical shift in the numbers that we assign to the hours of the day. Really, it 'shifts' our experience of daylight, it doesn't 'save' it. But wouldn't it be strange if we called it Daylight Shifting Time?
Daylight Saving Time started in the United States during World War I in order to save energy for war production by taking advantage of the later hours of daylight between the months of April and October. During World War II the federal government again required the states to observe the time change. Between the two wars and after World War II individual states and communities chose whether or not to observe Daylight Saving Time. In 1966, Congress passed the Uniform time act which standardized the length of Daylight Saving Time across the nation
