Convert Date and time to utc in rails

# Assuming you have a DateTime object in a variable called 'local_time'
local_time = DateTime.now

# Convert the DateTime object to UTC
utc_time = local_time.utc

Explanation: 1. DateTime.now creates a DateTime object representing the current date and time in the local time zone. 2. local_time.utc converts the local DateTime object (local_time) to UTC (Coordinated Universal Time). The utc method is used to convert the time to UTC format, ensuring it's in the standardized global time zone.
