Joan Costa-i-Font

Joan Costa-i-Font, a health economist at the London School of Economics, and Binyamin Appelbaum, a member of the New York Times editorial board, dive into a lively debate about the relevance of Daylight Savings Time. Costa-i-Font argues that the time change harms health and productivity, while Appelbaum defends its role in enhancing our quality of life. They explore the historical origins, public sentiment, and legislative challenges surrounding this timekeeping practice, making a compelling case for why it's time to rethink the clock.
