What interests me the most about this is that the times people use for work and school are set while the way we relate time to the cycle of the sun is the thing we want to change.


I've thought the same thing about temperature. In many places where the temperature and weather are unbearable during the day, the nights are beautifully comfortable. Alas, everything is closed. It would be amazing if "open hours" could shift with the weather, keeping people inside when it was bad and outside when it was nice, and if humans didnt need a 24h sleep schedule.


It’s probably easier to change behavior that’s arbitrarily done twice a year (changing clocks) than to change institutions (schools, corporations)
