Google gets greener
"Renewable Energy Cheaper Than Coal" is the title of Google's new green initiative. Larry Pa comments in BrandRepublic:

- Google has launched its own carbon calculator as part of it's igoogle service. It was only a matter of time, really. Has anyone created on of these for facebook yet???
- Shell has been rapped over the knuckles for it's excessively floral advertising, as the ASA upholds a complaint from Friends of the Earth over adverts released earlier this year.
- Have you greened your IT? Greenbang reports today that: 80 per cent of executives surveyed at US businesses told analyst firm IDC that ‘Green IT’ is growing in importance for their organisation. And 43 per cent said they consider a vendor’s ‘greenness’ when selecting their suppliers.
- The Green Party has branded Brown's vision for the future a "dark, dystopian disaster" in their response to the Queen's Speech.
