Animated Google Doodle honors Earth Day


Google on Monday marked Earth Day with a 3D animated doodle, keeping the public aware of the importance of the environment and the effects of global warming.

Visitors to Google's homepage (www.google.com) were greeted with a doodle featuring ecological systems that spell the word "Google."


"The Google Doodle have also been cleverly designed into an animation showing the effects of Global Warming on the Earth. If you clicked on the Google Doodle without seeing the animation, you can go back to Google and click on the Earth Day 2013 play button, which will then animate the Google doodle showing the long term effect of global warming and climate change," according to an article on 3d-Car-shows.com.



 It added Earth Day 2013 "aims to raise people’s awareness of global warming, and offers solutions to people to help fight against Climate Change."

As in the past, clicking on the small magnifying glass will send the user to a Search Results page for Earth Day.

The EarthDay.org site warned of the effects of climate change, which it said "can seem like a remote problem for our leaders."

For this year's observance of Earth Day, it asked the public to help make a mosaic of the "faces" of climate change.


 "Fortunately, other Faces of Climate Change are multiplying too: those stepping up to do something about it. Help us personalize the massive challenge climate change presents by taking a photo and telling your story. How has climate change impacted you? What are you doing to be part of the solution?" it asked. — TJD, GMA News
