New Zealander George Hudson proposed the modern idea of daylight saving in 1895. Germany and Austria-Hungary organized the first implementation, starting on 30 April 1916. Many countries have used it at various times since then, particularly since the energy crisis of the 1970s.
Daylight saving time, a change in the standard time designed to conserve energy and make better use of daylight, officially begins Sunday. That means at 2 a.m., clocks should spring forward â in other words, they should be set one hour ahead. Daylight saving time officially ends at 2 a.m. Sunday, Nov. 6, and that's when clocks will fall back an hour. The United States wasn't the first country to observe daylight saving time.
