If you live close to the equator chances are right now you have a puzzled expression on your face so thats why im here to explain daylight saving first introdced by benjamin franklin, although at the time it was only just made public the prospect had been used in nothern countries i.e britain and north europe for centuries earlier.

Daylight saving is when clocks are tuned back an hour during the summer months and forward and hour during the winter this is because if you live close to the poles of the earth, due to the earths orbit there is an hour more sunlight during summer than winter so farmers would set there clock back during winter to be up in time for the sunlight and back an hour to standard time in the summer so they would be back home by dark the system since then has been used thorughout entire countries as a way to get the most from the daylight.
