Daylight Saving Time

Daylight Saving Time (DST) is the practice of moving clocks forward by one hour in spring and back by one hour in fall. This shifts daylight hours to better match human activity, typically providing more daylight in the evening during warmer months. The goal is to make better use of natural light, conserve energy, and promote outdoor activities. DST usually begins in March or April and ends in October or November, varying by country. While it can improve daily schedules, it also requires adjusting sleep patterns temporarily.
