title: PHP - Correct way to get current UTC date time
body: <p>I have searched stack overflow and google and other sources for an answer to this, though, all answers i find are pretty different, the answer that occurred the most (twice) was this one:</p>
  
  <pre><code>$time = new DateTime('now', new DateTimeZone('UTC'));
  echo $time-&gt;format('F j, Y H:i:s');
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>So my question is, is that the best/correct way to get the current UTC date/time, and if not, what is?</p>
  
  <p>Thanks!</p>
