Our 2017 environmental report

Today we will publish the latest environmental report providing data on the Google Environmental Sustainability Program. This report will end in 2016, a landmark year with three key milestones: carbon neutral for 10 years, earth outreach program for 10 years, and 100% for our business. Renewable energy

Last year, we worked as a carbon neutral company for 10 years. In 2007, we are actively seeking energy efficiency, renewable energy and high quality carbon offset. Since then, our carbon footprint grew at a rate slower than our business. We have learned and advanced these fields in a way we could not imagine ten years ago - and work proved that we can serve more and more users while reducing natural resources - To do.

The most noteworthy is that in 2017 Google will provide 100% renewable energy to worldwide operations including data centers and offices. This means purchasing enough wind and solar energy every year to calculate all units of electricity consumed all over the world. Changes in this energy strategy are not only to greatly reduce the environmental impact. By creating a new energy procurement model that others can follow, we have helped to promote the widespread adoption of clean energy all over the world.

The Earth Outreach program has also been a decade since non-profit organizations have provided resources, tools and inspiration to take advantage of the features of Google Earth and other drawing tools. Earth Outreach combines machine learning and cloud computing to build a vibrant earth dashboard. By changing the geographical data we have to insight and knowledge, we can guide the community and help make better decisions all over the world.

One of the main influences of the social 'absorption-waste' economic model is climate change, which is one of the most important tasks of our time. We believe we can build tools to improve the lives of people while reducing dependence on natural resources and fossil fuels. We work closely with other people to ensure that all people, including businesses, governments, nonprofit organizations, communities, and individuals, can create a more sustainable world.

We shared some new stories on European renewable energy and healthy building materials tools on the environment website. We will also explain that these efforts could have a positive impact on millions of customers using Google Cloud.

Regarding environmental management, Google is heading in the right direction - but there are still many things to do. While building the technology that can help as many people as possible, we are looking forward to reducing the impact on the planet over the next decade.

The Ecolab 2017 Annual Report states: "Sustainability is at the core of our business strategy, sustainability helping companies around the world to achieve results while minimizing the impact on the environment and society We will provide a possible solution. " "The work we do is important and our way of doing work is important for our employees, customers, investors, and the communities that work with our customers." Ecolab's goal is now 2030 It is to save 300 billion gallons annually to the year. It is water. At its facilities and customer premises. This has not been fully realized in 2017 and helps customers save 171 million gallons of water - 587 million people a year. If you've already read about Las Vegas getting out of hand immediately, you know that this is a big problem.
