The research shuttle of the 1986 expensive spaters revealed that the most important decisions worked in a short sleep, worries grow Fatigue decreased their judgment. Also in 1989, Exxon Valdez oil spill led to massive environmental catastrophe. The Official Research revealed the third partner who is in charge of directing the ship, There was little sleepamong other problems.
These specific disasters were not created as a result of the daylight schedule, based on fatigue Post accident research and reports. They emphasize the risks well documented by deficiency and fatigue associated with sleeping deficiency. However, a wide research body shows annually saving time saving time by day, increasing these risks, increasing millions of American sleep and increasing probability Accidents, health problems and serious mistakes.

Imagine a world with a simple decision – maintaining watches lined with the natural cycle of the sun – to save lives, avoid accidents and improve mental well-being. It’s not about an hour lost sleep; Low discussions in our health, our workplaces and also reduces through the futures of our children.
I’m a neurologist which specializes in sleeping health. I have seen the negative effects of poor land; It has tremendous personal and economic consequences.
Though The overwhelming research protects better sleep policies– Initial school times, aligning with adolescent biology and adopt a permanent standard of time – these issues are largely forgotten in public policy discussions.
Sleep deprivation comes with real costs
Chronic lack of sleep makes people more tired. The calculation costs US $ 411 trillion every year Lost productivity and health costs. Leads to poor sleep Occupational errors, Car accidents and Long-term health problems who have filtered businesses, families and economics as a whole.
Luckily there is a repair. Intelligent sleep policies, such as permanent standard time and then school initial hours – can increase efficiency, improve health and save lives.
Before sunrise
Adolescents show that most of the age groups finished to sleep in many US and surveys showing and shows anywhere from 71% to 84% of high school students Reporting not sleep.
This is largely Times to start early schoolthose who wake up teenagers before their biological clocks. If you have a teenager, you probably see it every day: teenagers are fighting before sunrise, without breakfast door, you wait in the dark at school bus.
More than 80% of US half and high school public schools Start 8:30 a.m.42% and before 8 in the morning and 10% before 7:30, some neighborhoods have a bus pickup Up to 5 am.
Teenagers a Natural change in their circadian rhythms about two hours. This change, driven by hormones and biology, do hard Sleep before 11:00. Teenagers’ bodies are not designed for these wired schedules, however, they designed a system that forcing schools and society to operate their worst.
Reduce scores, driving and coarse depression
Sleeping teenagers have Lower grades and testsMore cars fail Affected by driving, More alcohol and drug use and higher rates Depression, Anxiety, suicide and aggressive behavior, including Carrying weapons.
Along with health benefits, studies have found schools at 8:30 am or later Could add $ 8.6 billion dollars In the economy in two years, partly Increasing graduation rates.
Concerns about major transport expenses, such as buses or drivers, from the beginning of school, some distances have found that optimizing bus routes can compensate for expenses, allowing the cost of change or cost saving. For example, a study of Boston found advanced algorithms using advanced algorithms, reduced improved number of buses and improved efficiency, which allowed high school students later and better align with natural sleeping cycles. This change also supports the health of sleeping sleeping The district saved $ 5 million every year.
More heart attacks, car remains and suicide
In every March, most Americans move on the clocks the daylight. Research shows this change interrupts sleeping and brings measurable harmful results, among other things Highlights increase in heart attack. These effects last the days after the change, they are struggling to adapt to sleep staff.
The influence of mental health is also serious. Suicide rates increase In the weeks after changing, especially for those in the face of depression.
Unlike the day saving time, the standard time continues the natural circular circular rhythm of the body, which is Regulated exposure to sunlight. The most stable in our internal watches is the exposure of the day when the day takes place early, waking up the body and regulating key biological functions, such as hormone production, alery and metabolism. On the contrary, the daylight lighting extends the afternoon afternoon, the body is releasing melatonin and making it harder.
Research has found it when taking a permanent standard time Prevent 5,000 suicide each year By reducing seasonal depression, Diminishes, injuries and absentism decrease work place and make roads safer, potentially prevent 1,300 traffic death each year.
Times are changing
The US tried to save the light of the day in 1974. This conference was so popular He repealed in nine months.
Russia also tried, in 2011, but It has changed three years later. The UK left a permanent hour of the day after three years in 1971, and Portugal after four in 1996. All of these countries were found publicly disagreements publicly, health concerns, More Morning Car Accidents and Uninterrupted Work Schedules. There is currently no time saving time in the daylight of the day.
These examples provide real-world evidence that permanent DST is unwanted due to security concerns and negative health effects, all three countries tried and ultimately the reverse course. It has been a renewed discussion since 2022, driven by the US USA by the US US. Sunshine Protection ActIt aims to make DST permanent.
However, the name is misleading because it does not “protect” the “protecting the sun”, but it is essential that it eliminates the critical morning light Regulates circuit rhythms. Major health organizations, along with national security concatenas, strongly Opose DST well due to well-documented hazards.
There are signs that suggest the USA to wake up these problems. 13,000 from within school, 1,000 independently accepted later school times. Grade and Florida California California’s term of California started in 2022 by laws that need to start before high schools. They entered 2022 in 2026.
Permanent standard and later school times are not radical ideas. They are practical solutions based on evidence based on human biology. The implementation of these changes should be the action of Congress in the nation. However, the current federal law has already noted that the States adopt a sustainable standard, Arizona and Hawaii, establishing a precedent for the rest of the country.
