Today is Earth Day throughout the world and Google, Bing, Ask.com, and also YouTube have special logos or themes today for the day. But as many of you know, China had a major earthquake yesterday killing almost 200 people and injuring an astonishing 11,000 plus people.

Let’s first start with the happier Earth Day logos and then I’ll share the earthquake logos.

Now, here are the sad earthquake logos which all lead to resource pages for those in the area that need help or want to help.

Baidu:

Sogou:

Hope China recovers quickly from this.

Here are the past Earth Day logos from 2012, 2011 Earth Day, 2010 Earth Day, <a href="2009, 2008, 2007, 2006, 2005 and 2004.

Note, there is one complaint about the Google logo so far, that the way the sun shines on the letters is wrong.
