Going green for good
We want people to feel good about using Google products. One way we try to do that is by making environmentally-responsible choices in all aspect of business—from cooling our data centers to choosing paint for our office walls. We’ve set an (ambitious!) goal for ourselves to be carbon-neutral, and our engineering, real estate and workplace services, and Google.org teams are putting their creative energy into making it happen.
