The UK Carbon Footprint project
Tuesday, October 21st, 2008Today I was surfing the internet and found a very interesting project/utility… once again from GOOGLE!
The project’s name is:
The UK Carbon Footprint project .
“Google aims to help people find information that matters to them quickly and easily. Through the UK Carbon Footprint Project we make information on calculating and reducing your carbon footprint, as well as information on climate change in the UK, easily accessible to everyone.
The project enables you to calculate your carbon footprint, choose personalised carbon-reducing actions and compare your footprint and actions to those of others around the country by placing yourself on the Google UK Carbon Footprint Map.”
Here the summary of my report (which one is your?):

Queen Elizabeth II visits Google in London – UK
Friday, October 17th, 2008
(images courtesy of Jon and google) – On the 16th of October 2008, Queen Elizabeth II visited Google’s UK Headquarters in London.
Queen Elizabeth II was the first Sovereign to send an email, and now Queen Elizabeth II is the first Queen to visit Google’s UK Headquarters in London.
Google celebrated the queen’s visit by creating a special version of its google.co.uk home page, which featured a silhouette of her head as the second “G” and a regal crown atop the “E” in their logo. This Logo is called Google Doodles and was designed by schoolchildren (here the article).
