DST had its place in the past. But, it serves no purpose now.
Now that it's daylight savings I'll make less kWh.

Catch, make or grow everything you can.
If you had a choice of an hour of sunlight at 5:00AM to 6:00AM each day, OR shift that same hour to be from 9:00PM to 10:00PM
then you start to see the merit of the shift. I mean I like being an early riser, but even I got limits! For the average person the later daylight is nice for evenings with family after work.
Then again having worked in a place that had two months a year of NO daylight, and six months later 24-hour daylight, the DST didn't serve any purpose at all, LOL, (in fact working in 24-hour light is damn confusing to a body I might add).

Whatever you did, that's what you planned.
Let's not forget the people who are fully off grid and can barely make it through the night as it was. Now with DST it's another hour before they see the sun in the morning.
