Google Oceans Could Unveil Climate Change Data

What kind of news would you expect from an event at which Google CEO Eric Schmidt and former Vice President Al Gore deliver speeches surrounded by ocean creatures? If you’re thinking something on climate change (Gore), the Internet (Google and Schmidt) and the ocean (it’s taking place at the California Academy of Sciences in San Francisco), then you’re probably right. At 10AM today Google is scheduled to unveil somethin’, and according to the Guardian Google will announce how it is using Google Earth to map the world’s oceans, complete with maps of seabeds and underwater imagery that can show the effects of climate change on seas.
