Time Change 2024: When We Move the Hands One Hour Backу

On Sunday - October 27 - we will switch to winter time. At exactly 4:00 a.m., we will turn back the clocks one hour and return to astronomical time. This means that our day will be one hour longer and we will sleep with
Astronomical time is in the interval from October to March. We also call it winter time, and it was first tested in Germany during the First World War. The second country to adopt the time change is Great Britain, followed by the rest of the European countries. In Bulgaria, summer and winter time were introduced on April 1, 1979
The purpose of the invention, first proposed by Benjamin Franklin, is to save light in winter and extend daylight hours in summer. Nowadays, however, the economic arguments in favor of the change are increasingly "exhaling". The member states of the European Union, including Bulgaria, will certainly change the time in 2025. The reason is that discussions around the abolition of the time change were frozen due to the coronavirus pandemic. They are yet to be renewed in the European Commission. In theory, different countries have the right to take a different approach, but Brussels' goal is for compromise to prevail within the EU. However, a number of countries such as Russia, Turkey, China, Egypt and others do not change the time at all.
