Written by C2C Team | Apr 27, 2021 5:00:00 AM

Look back on Earth Week 2021 with the C2C Community, where Google Cloud developer advocates Stephanie Wong and Alexandrina Garcia-Verdin, and cloud sustainability lead, Chris Talbott, recorded a live episode for their GCP Podcast


Google first achieved carbon neutrality in 2007, and since 2017 Google has purchased enough solar and wind energy to match 100% of our global electricity consumption. Now Google's building on that progress to target a new sustainability goal: running their business on carbon-free energy 24/7, everywhere, by 2030. In this recording, hear about Google's new Cloud Region Picker sharing data about how they are performing against that objective so that you can select Google Cloud regions based on the carbon-free energy supplying them.
