Morocco reverts to GMT after 8 years
Morocco prepares to return to Greenwich Mean Time, as the government approved a draft decree to delay the clock by 60 minutes starting September 20th, and to eliminate the "daylight saving time" system that has been in place since 2018. The decree stipulates adopting Greenwich Mean Time as the official time for the kingdom, ending the use of "GMT+1" time, which was introduced with the start of the extra hour system and sparked widespread debate about its impact on daily life, sleep, and energy consumption. This move follows a popular campaign and over 300,000 signatures, resulting in the end of the "GMT+1" experiment three days before the parliamentary elections, amid ongoing discussions about the utility of daylight saving time and its economic and social effects.
