What you didn’t know about daylight saving

from The Daily Aus · host The Daily Aus

If you’ve woken up this morning thinking and it's earlier than you thought, that’s because daylight saving has officially ended! It’s one of two times during the year that clocks change - but why does it actually exist? And how did it start? Today we are going to explain why we actually have daylight saving - and answer the questions you’ve probably thought about, but never known the answers to.
