Google may do many things, but one of them isn't paying lip service to climate change.

Google has also invested quite a lot in seamless video conferencing tech way before other companies allowing a large reduction in travel (and carbon footprint) despite a global workforce. These days it's common across tech companies, but it wasn't 10 years ago when they started rolling out GVC.

So is Google saying what's good for thee isn't good for me? You lead by example. These tech companies sell all the tools you need to support a remote work force and then turn around and say a remote work force isn't good for them. What message does that send?
