Time zones

Today in class we learned about time zones. A time zone is a region of time that observes a uniform standard time for legal, commercials, and special purposes. UTC is coordinated universal time the primary time standard by which the world regulates clocks and time. Daylights savings time is the practice of turning a clock ahead as warmer weather approaches and back as it becomes colder again so that people will have one more hour of day light in the afternoon and the evening during the warmer season of the year. We also talked about where the time zones start and where they end it is a really interesting map to look at the times zones end where the state border is so that a city does not have a different time zone in some places.
