Google likes to solve problems. It wants to be a more sustainable company too. This year, the company will hit its goal of purchasing 100 percent renewable energy to run its operations. Google also recognizes that meat consumption is an important part of its carbon footprint. That’s why many attempts are made to bring down the meat consumption at the company’s headquarters in Sunnyvale. Google chefs are developing a plant-based “power dish” more popular than meat. The chefs aim that their efforts will ultimately serve not just Googlers but restaurants across the country. Their recipes will be available for anyone to use on World Resources Institute’s website in September.
