With Daylight Savings once again coming up, it never fails for it to spark discussions about its purpose in modern times. People hate it widely while few seem to be okay with it and depending where you live, others don't even know what the deal is.

Politicians have actually put it on the docket to be voted on, but seems to have lost traction. Quite frankly, this is an issue that should be done and over with. Just end it, but please end it when we have the clocks dialed back than forward, because I wouldn't like time going faster than it already is.

Germany has just ditched green energy.

We didnt ditch it but Minister for Energy, Mrs. Reiche, is putting hard restrictions and obstacles in the way of revewable energies. Promoting coal and gas. She used to work for E-on in a high position. A gas energie provider. Saying "privat solar panels are detrimend and rival to the energie companies" for example

The entire conservative government is hellbend on undoing great green energie laws by the green minister Robert Habeck, of the last government.

Our government threw logic and the commitment to leave our children a world worth living out of the window. Because in the future the hydrogen fairy is coming and will provide us with cheap green hydrogen. Oh, and fusion will be viable.

Sometimes you have to wonder what they are smoking. But then again: ~~bribes~~ lobbying.

Op is kind of right in my opinion. We (our government) are about to ditch green energy/tech.
