10:10 Lighter Later
The people over at 10:10 have a campaign to keep the UK’s clocks one hour ahead all year round, so winter would be GMT +1 hour, and summer would be GMT +2 hours. This would move one hour of daylight from the morning to the evening, when most people would be awake to enjoy it.
You can find more info, and can sign up, on the 10:10 Lighter Later website.
What has this to do with Green Saving?
They have listed many benefits of this change, but the main one is cutting at least 447,000 tonnes of CO2 pollution each year. The list of benefits can be found here. Another key benefit is that it will save 100 lives each year by making the roads safer.
