During the winter months the length of the daylight hours shortens.
There is nothing you can do about this. It's down to the tilt of the earth on it's axis and obliquity of the eccliptic.
What man can do, is alter when they they get up and go to work, which is all driven by clocks.
Instead of deciding to change the time of going to work at 8 instead of 9, because its lighter earlier in summer, it's somehow easier to alter the clocks.
So we call 8 o'clock, 9 o'clock in summer and then put the clocks right in winter.
What else can I help you with?
Is standard time being phased out in favor of daylight savings time?
No, standard time is not being phased out in favor of daylight saving time. Daylight saving time is a practice of adjusting the clocks forward by one hour in the spring to extend daylight in the evenings, and then adjusting them back by one hour in the fall. Standard time, on the other hand, is the time that is used for the majority of the year, when the clocks are not adjusted.
