The author proves that the Camassa-Holm equation gives rise to a geodesic flow of a certain right invariant metric on the Bott-Virasoro group. It is explained that the sectional curvature of this metric is taking positive and negative signs. In addition to these results the paper contains some rather interesting remarks.
