De ce dăm ceasurile înapoi la 4:00 și nu la 3:00. Motivul pentru care România schimbă ora în acest moment al nopții

Romanians will experience a longer night at the end of October due to the return to standard time. On October 25, 2026, clocks will be set back from 4:00 to 3:00, resulting in a 25-hour day. This change aligns with EU regulations, which dictate the timing based on Coordinated Universal Time (UTC). The shift occurs at 1:00 UTC, making it 4:00 in Romania. The practice of changing the clocks twice a year aims to reduce energy consumption by aligning daily activities with natural daylight. However, recent discussions question the effectiveness of this system, highlighting its impact on health and circadian rhythms.
