Maps & Earth

Summer is almost here and the Googleplex is buzzing with travel
plans. (Hey, even geeks have to play sometime.) We looked at all
the great Maps mashup sites out there and thought, why
shouldn't we have some fun too? So we started working on a Maps
mashup that would highlight some fun summer activities that also
respect the environment. The result is our href="http://maps.google.com/green/" >Summer of Green travel mashup
site. We've teamed with href="http://www.earthday.net/" >Earth Day Network to highlight
some planet-friendly travel tips for top U.S. travel destinations
as well as how to use Google Maps in your daily routine to find and
support green activities.

Did you know you could go href="http://maps.google.com/green/gg_interior_lv.html" >kayaking in
Las Vegas? Or rent a href="http://maps.google.com/green/gg_interior_la.html" >hybrid limo
service in LA? Or stay at a href="http://maps.google.com/green/gg_interior_orl.html" >Disney
hotel in Orlando that recycles its water? These are a just few
of the stops documented in our video-enhanced Google Maps
mashup.

Hope you enjoy these and maybe even find some fun — and green –
destinations for your summer trips.
