  • Abstract
    Starting in 2007, Google committed significant resources to tackle the world´s climate and energy problems. A few of these efforts proved very successful: Google deployed some of the most energy-efficient data centers in the world, purchased large amounts of renewable energy, and offset what remained of its carbon footprint.
