Googling greener
GOOGle has rolled out new eco-friendly search filters to help users make more environmentally conscious decisions about how they travel.
The company’s Chief Executive Officer Sundar Pichai announced a number of green initiatives are being worked on, which includes an update to Google Flights, which will now display information about carbon emissions directly in its list of search results.
When users search for hotels, they will now see information on each property’s sustainability efforts, such as waste reduction and water conservation measures, and whether they’re Green Key or EarthCheck.
