Permanent daylight saving time called a public health risk
Original: Permanent daylight saving time could be a public health time bomb
Experts warn that making daylight saving time permanent could harm public health, arguing that staying on year-round summer time forces people to wake in darkness and disrupts their body clocks. The claim is that misaligned circadian rhythms raise risks of sleep problems, accidents and other health issues, making the policy switch potentially a 'time bomb' for population wellbeing.
Why now: Lawmakers and the public are debating whether the US should stop switching clocks between standard and daylight saving time.
