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

How can you save your world and its resources?
That really depends on what you believe is happening. In the Southwestern United States we have over 400 years of oil left at current use. Trees and forest are growing at high rates in North America today. There are more forests and trees today then 100 years ago.
Pollution is an issue that does need to be addressed. Destroying the drinking water and filling landfills with needless junk is not productive and makes us just bad stewards of our children's world.
Using things that are reusable is a start, if these items are not plastic to start with. Buy your next car without air conditioning is far better then buying one with. Not having your heat above 65 in the winter and under 74 in the summer all are good for the environment.
How is the change of potential difference across the capacitor determined?

In the UK and much of Europe, however, standard time starts at the last Sunday in October and runs through the last Sunday of March or for about four more weeks.
Are lighthouses lit during daylight hours?
No. Lighthouses are not lit in daylight hours, because a lighthouse light is like a giant magnifying glass made up of usually hundreds of prisms. If the light was on in daylight hours the magnified beam of light is capable of focusing the sunlight just like you can do with a hand-held magnifying glass. This laser beam of light could easily ignite dry vegetation as the light sweeps over the land.

Description of the sunrise and sunset in the cloud by pb Shelley?
I bring fresh showers for the thirsting flowers,
From the seas and the streams;
I bear light shade for the leaves when laid
In their noonday dreams.
From my wings are shaken the dews that waken
The sweet buds every one,
When rocked to rest on their mother's breast,
As she dances about the sun.
I wield the flail of the lashing hail,
And whiten the green plains under,
And then again I dissolve it in rain,
And laugh as I pass in thunder.
I sift the snow on the mountains below,
And their great pines groan aghast;
And all the night 'tis my pillow white,
While I sleep in the arms of the blast.
Sublime on the towers of my skiey bowers,
Lightning, my pilot, sits;
In a cavern under is fettered the thunder,
It struggles and howls at fits;
Over earth and ocean, with gentle motion,
This pilot is guiding me,
Lured by the love of the genii that move
In the depths of the purple sea;
Over the rills, and the crags, and the hills,
Over the lakes and the plains,
Wherever he dream, under mountain or stream,
The Spirit he loves remains;
And I all the while bask in Heaven's blue smile,
Whilst he is dissolving in rains.
The sanguine Sunrise, with his meteor eyes,
And his burning plumes outspread,
Leaps on the back of my sailing rack,
When the morning star shines dead;
As on the jag of a mountain crag,
Which an earthquake rocks and swings,
An eagle alit one moment may sit
In the light of its golden wings.
And when Sunset may breathe, from the lit sea beneath,
Its ardors of rest and of love,
And the crimson pall of eve may fall
From the depth of Heaven above,
With wings folded I rest, on mine aery nest,
As still as a brooding dove.
That orbed maiden with white fire laden,
Whom mortals call the Moon,
Glides glimmering o'er my fleece-like floor,
By the midnight breezes strewn;
And wherever the beat of her unseen feet,
Which only the angels hear,
May have broken the woof of my tent's thin roof,
The stars peep behind her and peer;
And I laugh to see them whirl and flee,
Like a swarm of golden bees,
When I widen the rent in my wind-built tent,
Till the calm rivers, lakes, and seas,
Like strips of the sky fallen through me on high,
Are each paved with the moon and these.
I bind the Sun's throne with a burning zone,
And the Moon's with a girdle of pearl;
The volcanoes are dim, and the stars reel and swim
When the whirlwinds my banner unfurl.
From cape to cape, with a bridge-like shape,
Over a torrent sea,
Sunbeam-proof, I hang like a roof,--
The mountains its columns be.
The triumphal arch through which I march
With hurricane, fire, and snow,
When the Powers of the air are chained to my chair,
Is the million-colored bow;
The sphere-fire above its soft colors wove,
While the moist Earth was laughing below.
I am the daughter of Earth and Water,
And the nursling of the Sky;
I pass through the pores of the ocean and shores;
I change, but I cannot die.
For after the rain when with never a stain
The pavilion of Heaven is bare,
And the winds and sunbeams with their convex gleams
Build up the blue dome of air,
I silently laugh at my own cenotaph,
And out of the caverns of rain,
Like a child from the womb, like a ghost from the tomb,
I arise and unbuild it again.
