(Reuters) - Alphabet Inc's Google aims to replenish 20% more water than its offices and data centers use by 2030, the company said on Thursday, addressing concerns about water-guzzling tech facilities amid record droughts.
"We are pledging to a water stewardship target to replenish more water than we consume by 2030 and support water security in communities where we operate," Google Chief Sustainability Officer Kate Brandt wrote in a blog post https://blog.google/outreach-initiatives/sustainability/replenishing-water. "This means Google will replenish 120% of the water we consume, on average, across our offices and data centers."
