      ⚡ Google Cloud data centers need electricity. 💨 Consuming electricity emits more or less carbon dioxide, depending on how and when the electricity was produced. 📈 High carbon dioxide emissions are responsible for climate change.

        📊 Thanks to our partner tmrowco, we computed and published for most googlecloud regions: - The average percentage of carbon free energy consumed on an hourly basis (Google CFE%) - The average grid carbon intensity from the grid (gCO2eq/kWh). cloud.google.com/sustainability/region-carbon#data
