Permanent winter time is the most beneficial, but European countries continue to worry

The clock will be set back one hour this weekend, returning to standard time. The European Parliament aims to abolish daylight saving time, but member states have not reached a consensus on which time to keep. There is a divide between Northern and Southern European countries regarding this issue. A study by the European Commission will conclude by the end of the year, potentially initiating the abolition process. Experts argue that permanent winter time is preferable for health, as constant daylight saving time can disrupt biological rhythms and lead to health issues. Historical attempts at permanent daylight saving time have resulted in negative effects on well-being. The Netherlands is currently in the wrong time zone, leading to a significant discrepancy with solar time, which affects daily light distribution.
