Mexican president to end daylight saving time, keep 'God's clock'
MEXICO CITY - Mexico’s president submitted a bill Tuesday to end daylight saving time, putting an end to the practice of changing clocks twice a year.Health Secretary Jorge Alcocer said Mexico should return to "God’s clock," or standard time, arguing that setting clocks back or forward damages people’s health.That would mean darkness falling an hour earlier on summer afternoons."The recommendable thing is to return to standard time, which is when the solar clock coincides with the people's clock, the clock of God," Alcocer argued.Mexicans set their clocks ahead this year on April 3, and are scheduled to set them back on Oct. 30.
