For example, we used an electric Street View car to capture <a href="https://medium.com/google-earth/using-hyperlocal-air-quality-data-to-improve-dubliners-lives-and-health-45a1db0404" target="_blank"><u>air quality measurements in Dublin</u></a>, Ireland street-by-street.</p> </div> <div class="viewless-subdesc"> <p>Another effort, Green Light—an AI tool for optimizing traffic signals—has been implemented in 12 cities across four continents. Recommendations in these cities have helped save fuel and lower emissions for up to 32 million car rides monthly.<sup>1</sup> Early numbers from Green Light indicate the potential to reduce stops by up to 30% and reduce emissions at intersections by up to 10%.<sup>2</sup></p> </div> <div class="viewless-subdesc"> <p>In response to the increasing frequency and severity of devastating wildfires and flooding, Google has developed technology to help governments, aid organizations, and communities take timely action. Our wildfire detection and prediction feature maps wildfires in near real time using satellite data. The Google Flood Forecasting Initiative uses AI to predict when and where riverine flooding will occur. These actionable early warning systems help to save both lives and livelihoods.</p> </div> </div> <button class="sus-button--low-emphasis glue-expansion-panel__button exp-btn-more"
