Regeneration RoadTrip 08

During our travels in the Bay Area, Todd and I ended up near Mountain View and took the opportunity to make a quick stop at Google HQ. We were hoping for a tour and maybe a lunch at their super-sustainable cafeteria, but apparently the place is closed to the public so all we ended up with was a free bottle of juice.

Well, that and a quick little video of the parking lot — which is actually a lot more exciting than it sounds. The parking lot is covered with solar panels and even includes plugs for any electric vehicles that need charging. Talk about some juice!
