Google's carbon footprint balloons in its Gemini AI era
Briefly

Google's total greenhouse gas emissions have grown by 48 percent since 2019, hindering its goal of cutting planet-heating pollution by 2030.
The increase in emissions is mainly attributed to data center energy use and supply chain emissions, especially from the energy-intensive AI training processes.
Integrating AI into products may pose challenges in reducing emissions due to increased energy demands, impacting Google's technical infrastructure investment and overall carbon footprint.
