Uber’s new feature to track CO2 emissions saved on every Uber Green ride 

Gurgaon/Chandigarh March 12, 2024: Uber today announced a whole new way for riders to track their contribution in reducing carbon emissions to the environment with the launch of ‘Emission Savings’. This new feature will give Uber riders visibility on how many kilograms of CO2 emissions they saved by riding in Uber Green vehicles. 
 
The feature is live across Delhi-NCR, Mumbai and Bengaluru where riders can choose to book Uber Green - an all-electric vehicle ride category on the Uber app. The initiative is an attempt by Uber to nudge towards a behavioural shift to sustainable choices by informing riders about their contributions and encouraging them to embrace the low-emissions lifestyle. 
 
Speaking about the launch of the new feature, Nitish Bhushan, Head of Central Operations, Uber India said, “We understand that often it is tough for people to realise exactly how much they contribute to the environment by taking a single ride in a vehicle running on sustainable energy. The scale of that impact is an important tool to have at their fingertips in order for them to make more informed decisions around sustainability in their day-to-day lives. Emission Savings is designed to do just that!”
