At Google, engineers get to spend 20% of their time on internal projects of their own design and Steren built a free public-facing customer tool to help you consider the carbon footprint when provisioning your resources in a specific region.

I built a tool to help pick a @GoogleCloud region based on its carbon footprint, price and latency.
Adjust 3 sliders, get a sorted list of regions:

If you expand the cards you get a bit more detail.

Try the Google Cloud Carbon Footprint Region Picker yourself.

• Do you think you will ever consider your carbon-foot print when using cloud services?
• Would you ever want to see a carbon-foot print as part of the cost and usage reporting within your cloud service provider (CSPs)?

Did you know there is a Forem server just for just the cloud? www.thedev.cloud
