Can Google AI help cities reduce traffic emissions?



Stop-and-go traffic in urban areas causes 29 times more emissions than on open roads. Researchers at Google are partnering with cities around the globe, from Rio to Jakarta, using Google AI and Maps driving trends to optimize traffic light patterns and improve traffic flow. So far, local governments have saved fuel and lowered emissions for nearly 30 million car rides every month. Learn more about this research at: https://g.co/research/greenlight

  1. Well, this is too little to late. Google lost it's trend taotally. Look at android auto – huge possibilities still strugling massively. At least connect android auto to maps first, then go to intersections.

  3. First, the best way to sustainability is to develop more inexpensive and efficient ways to produce hydrocarbon based energy. Trying to portray oil as dirty fossil fuel is stupid. Oil is the most abundant, efficient and economical energy source in the world, and now because of strict environmental regulations regular gasoline is so clean that vehicle catalytic converters don't even do anything any more. The term 'fossil fuel' is a delusion and must be deprecated. It has been shown that there is way more oil in the earth than can be accounted for as having been made by the pyrolysis of fossilized organisms. Carbon is the 4th most abundant element and hydrogen is by far the most abundant in the universe. Hydrocarbons are being synthesized all the time by the combination of carbon and hydrogen under extreme heat and pressure deep in the earth. So, oil is in fact the ultimate renewable and sustainable energy.

    Second, You think you can help fix climate change by reducing carbon dioxide emissions. How ridiculous. If man-made carbon dioxide emissions were completely eliminated the climate would still change exactly the same as it is and has been since the beginning of climate. Carbon dioxide is not pollution. The whole notion of 'the greenhouse effect' has been debunked by real science [https://billstclair.com/bunk/Role_of_GHE-EaE.pdf%5D.

    Third, by around the year 2035 the long solar cycle will be in the middle of its grand solar minimum. Its lowest energy output will naturally reverse 100% of any global warming attributed to anything man-made. Of course, you and your kind will claim credit for it because of your completely frivolous and vain attempts to eliminate man-made carbon emissions by trying to force everyone into electric cars. Nevertheless, real science will prevail, and your delusional man-made-climate-change cult will fade into the repository of exploded fallacies.

  4. @Google Kush bhi karo ees Beautiful Earth ko pollution se bacha lo kisi aur planet par jeevan khojne ka kya fayda Jo planet humare paas jeevan se bhara hua hai usko hum bacha nahi paa rahe

    Maanlo ki hum doosre planet par jeevan ki khoj kar bhi le to fir kya hum dubara itni jaldi waha par development kese kar paye ge aur sab log waha shift kese hoge fir waha jakar bhi yahi kaam karege jo ees Earth ko barbaad karne wale kar rahe hai ??????

    Kabhi to hume Nature ko nuksaan karne se hatna hoga to abhi se ees Earth ko bachao

    Ees Earth par to abhi Tak har jagaha sukh suvidha logo tak pohach nahi payi Kai ese desh hai jaha log bure haal mai reh rahe hai kya jra koi soch sakta hai ees baat ko doosre planet par pohanch kar hum kitne saal back ho jayege ????

    Please ees ko Earth ko hee save kare
    I Love My Earth
