Daylight Savings Time is the process of turning our clocks forward during the summer months of the year. A man called George Vernon Hudson first proposed this practice in 1895. The actual roll out of the idea was on April 30, 1916. The actual dates that the clocks get changed have changed slightly over the years. In fact during the energy crisis in the 1970’s, it was greatly expanded on the idea that keeping it in effect would reduce energy consumption during peak hours.
