Climate Papa Leveraging product scale for the climate with Google's Director of Product for Climate & Sustainability, Travis McCoy
What if the biggest climate impact from companies like Google wasn’t in their operations, but in how they shape the decisions of billions of people?
In this episode of Climate Papa, I sit down with Travis McCoy, Director of Product for Sustainability at Google. We talk about his journey into climate, the pivotal moment that pushed him to make the leap, and how Google is leveraging its massive distribution to help individuals, businesses, and governments make lower-carbon choices.
Travis shares why he believes climate action isn’t just about reducing emissions—it’s about changing systems at scale. And we have a mini product-jam on what it could mean for tech leaders and product builders to build climate native products.
