This is a debate at a European level and at a global level, also because there are countries that also do it, I am talking about the change to daylight saving time, which is also an astronomical issue, everything that is related to measuring time has its roots in astronomy and what our planet is like, in Europe we have the controversy of changing the hours. The next change will be on the last Sunday of the month of March, it will be the change to daylight saving time.

In Spain we have two problems, not only is it the time change in winter or summer that can cause inconvenience, it is supposed to be an energy saving, but it is not clear, the data that defends it says that it would mean a saving of about 6 Euros per household per address.

The European Union is thinking about removing it or advising the member countries of the European Union to remove it, because you already know that the European Union really has very little executive power, what I can do is advise, another thing is that the member countries do not pay attention to the advice or take the advice as if it were a Bible and do what they want, in principle it seems that there is a big debate.

In Spain there was another additional problem, in 1940 during the Second World War Franco changed the time zone, we had the Greenwich Meridian, which is also the same meridian that passes through Castellón, since he changed it to Central European Time. Spain began to have the same time as France, Germany, Italy and other countries in central Europe instead of what would be logical, which was that of the United Kingdom, Ireland, Portugal and the Canary Islands, this was what existed before that change in 1940.

That is why in Spain it is an illogical hour within our position on the planet with respect to the Greenwich meridian, in the case of the change of daylight saving time it was also in fits and starts until practically the 70s due to the oil crisis where it was already imposed throughout Europe and thus we continue with the doubt of until when the time change will be maintained, officially as currently stated in the official State bulletin the time change will continue to exist in our country until 2026, and from So, things are not clear because in 2018 the European Commission, one of the main institutions of the European Union, announced its intention to definitively cancel the time changes, but as a suggestion, that is, it gave all countries the option to choose whether they wanted summer time or winter time.

What do you think, this change of hours should be cancelled, we should have a time more adjusted to our position, that is, more than Greenwich Mean Time and thus avoid one hour less in the Canary Islands, for example, and then there was this other curious proposal, which would be the one shown above, We would have the same time as France, Belgium, the Netherlands and the United Kingdom, but not Ireland and Portugal, it is curious.

It is one of those debates that have been going around for many years and that have not been resolved and in the end it can be resolved simply with a law or with a writing in the official State bulletin, the same thing that Franco did, a decree was signed and the time was changed, why not change the time because we do not have a time that is more adjusted to our position.

What do you think, this should be removed from the Summer and Winter Time changes, we must maintain it for energy savings, we should have a time more adjusted to our position, that is, Greenwich Time.
