    Years ago, the EU parliament decided to abandon DST - with a vast majority. They sent it to the governments as “Homework” to determine whether to keep Summer- or Standard Time. Nothing came out of it.

      The EU parliament didn’t vote to abandon DST, they voted for letting countries decide if they want to do DST or if they want to stick to one time zone. Apparently most countries decided to stick with DST.

        I would 100% rather light at 10pm than 4am where it’s totally wasted.

        Current light breakdown in Ireland over the year:

          I always forget how far north a lot of Europe is. The fact Dublin is further north than most Canadian major cities throws me for a loop

            Yeah it’s one of those weird map oddities that’s more noticeable on a globe.

            We are mega fucked here if the gulf of Mexico ever stops sending us that warm water goodness.
