On February 16, 2026, on the occasion of the National Day for Energy Saving and Sustainable Lifestyles, our University will participate in the initiative M’illumino di meno, turning off the University lights from 19:00 pm to 19:15 pm.
I light up less is a national campaign launched in 2005 by the radio program Caterpillar of Rai Radio2 with the aim of spreading a culture of respect for the environment and responsible consumption of resources.
Since 2022, this anniversary has been recognized by the Italian Parliament as the National Day of Energy Saving and Sustainable Lifestyles and is celebrated every year on February 16th to reflect on the importance of our daily choices in respecting the planet.
For 15 minutes, from 19:00 PM to 19:15 PM, we will symbolically turn off the lights in non-essential spaces of the University as a collective gesture of participation and awareness. This moment becomes an opportunity to remind ourselves that even small everyday actions—like reducing energy consumption, adopting sustainable behaviors, or rethinking our lifestyles—can contribute to positive change.
