Happy Earth Day! I'm sure some of you are wondering how Google
is celebrating, and we want to know href="http://www.google.com/earthday08/" id="oame"
>what you're doing too. We
work to make our business more environmentally sustainable
throughout the year, but this month, we want to support the hard
work you're doing to fight climate change. Last week we href="http://googleblog.blogspot.com/2008/04/we-cant-wait-for-earth-day.html"
id="op16" >blogged about some of Google's
new green tools, and now we have even more ways to help you observe
Earth Day 2008:

• Today we're launching the
  largest batch of new id="st6p" >Google Transit cities yet.
  Travelers in San Francisco, Denver, Milwaukee, Kansas City, Rhode
  Island and href="http://google-latlong.blogspot.com/2008/04/google-transits-earth-day-challenge.html" >
  other locations across the country can now use Google Maps to
  plan trips using public transportation.

      Finally, I'll leave you with some photos of our team's trip
      to Washington, D.C. for this past Sunday’s Earth Day concert on the
      National Mall. It got a bit soggy, but we had a blast showing
      attendees how the Google Checkout donation campaign works.
      We're especially proud of our booth, which was made of
      sustainable materials and powered by energy from clean hydrogen
      fuel cells.
