To bring its plans to fruition, Google announced that it is integrating sustainability into its product development process and across all its operations, including design, manufacture and shipping.“We are fundamentally looking to build sustainability into everything we do”, the company said in an official blog post. According to Google, the new initiatives are just a small part of its ongoing efforts“to leave people, the planet, and our communities better than we found them”.

In a conversation withFast Company, Google’s Head of Sustainability, Anna Meegan, said:“we are looking at this opportunity as a perfect time for us to make a stand and bring something to what we believe customers want … It aligns to our broader company culture around thinking about the big unsolved problems of our time. So this is something that we feel is the right thing to do”.
