As we noted two days ago , Google is taking its home page black in support of Earth Hour .
We criticized Google when we first posted about this because, it turns out, black web pages actually may use more power than white ones (based on a study that Google itself cited last year). So Google is, ironically, causing people who visit their site to use more power to celebrate Earth Hour than they would on a normal day.
Google changed its message to users to note the disparity (compare to what they said to Israeli users two days ago), but I still find this all very funny.
