“Tonight we change time, do we sleep one hour more or less?”
But also “le lancette le sposto avanti o indietro?” (Do I have to move clock hands forward or backward?)
-> We sleep one hour more the last weekend of October (clock hands backwards) and one hour less the last weekend of March (clock hands forward). The time change happens in the night between saturday and sunday at 3 a.m., as most of the transports are not moving. We change time to save electric energy.

“Attacks against civilian infrastructure, especially electricity, are war crimes,” pointed out Ursula von der Leyen, the president of the European Commission. “Cutting off men, women, children [from] water, electricity and heating with winter coming,” she continued— “these are acts of pure terror.” Von der Leyen is right, of course, but in this instance she was referring to Russia’s attacks on Ukraine’s infrastructure. As for Israel’s attacks on Gazas infrastructure, Von der Leyen says that Israel has the right to defend itself.
