Why "UTC time"?

UTC is the new name for what used to be called GMT (Greenwich Mean Time). It is the time in London (where 0 degrees longitude is located) during winter. In summer, London's time is one hour different to UTC time.

Interesting Fact...

The total population of the world in 1 AD was about the same as the population of the US today!

Concluding Remarks

We cannot continue to abuse the world like our forefathers did. They got away with it because of the smaller population, but we will not get away with it!
