Is Google worried about their Carbon Footprint?

Got in a bit late tonight - started computer, XP2 currently fully updated,
went into IE6 to get Google(default browser) after checking mail, and the
page is black with white print - thought my eyes had been effected by too
much alcohol?
A Google search showed much discussion about saving electricity by using a
black background as opposed to white.
Ran AV and four antispy progs - all gave a clean result.
Does anybody have any ideas?

Update - they are saving energy in the UK - well the page is not - just an
encouragement to everybody to turn all their lights out for 1 hour
