North Carolina adopted daylight saving time on April 30, 1917, as part of a national effort during World War I to conserve energy. However, the state has since followed the federal regulations, which established standard daylight saving time rules starting in 1966. Currently, North Carolina observes daylight saving time from the second Sunday in March to the first Sunday in November.
Louisiana first adopted daylight saving time in 1918 as part of the Standard Time Act. The state continues to observe daylight saving time each year, following the guidelines set by the federal government.
Virginia adopted daylight saving time in 1918, following the federal government's implementation during World War I to conserve energy. The state has observed daylight saving time since then, with some adjustments over the years. In 2005, Virginia officially adhered to the federal schedule, which starts on the second Sunday in March and ends on the first Sunday in November.
Daylight saving time was invented to make better use of daylight during the longer days of spring and summer, and to reduce energy consumption by having more activity during daylight hours. It aims to align human activities more closely with the natural light cycle.
The hope is that we save energy - since there's less of a need to switch on the lights if natural light will do . [Studies have shown the electricity conserved on the new schedule is actually pretty nominal .]
Being closer to the equator means a smaller difference in length of days between summer and winter. In places farther from the equator winter means shorter days. Daylight savings pushes the sunrise to a time where people must be up to work. In tropical climates the day doesn't get shorter, so noone needs to save its light!
