Google stated that eco-friendly route "usually have fewer hills, less traffic & constant speeds". Google will default it to the most fuel efficient route if it has roughly the same ETA as the fastest route.
Next is lite navigation which will be optimised for bike ride. The cyclists can track their trip progress, check for ETA update in real-time, and also know the elevation of the route.
Lastly, bike and scooter share options. It will be rolling out to 300 cities around the world, including Berlin, New York, São Paulo and Taipei in the next few months. (Google Blog)

Google Flights just got carbon emission tool which can estimate each flight carbon emission.
These emissions estimates are not just based on distance travelled, it also check for the plane classification, age, and even the seat you choose. Green badge is given for flight with significantly lower emissions. You can also sort results to check which flight is the most greenest.
Not just flights, when searching for hotels you will also be able to check if they have gained any eco-certifications from Green Key or EarthCheck. Checking out the "About" tab for the specific hotel shows info like waste reduction efforts and sustainably sourced materials to energy efficiency and water conservation measures. More info click here.
All these data are possible to be deliver to users because Google just joined the Travalyst coalition, which they hope to provide the travel industry a more accurate calculate carbon impact of our global air travel. (Google Blog)

#YouTube
YouTube will soon show which part of the video that viewer finds it to be the epic moment
A small amount of users on YouTube will get to see an engagement graph above the video progress bar, highlighting epics moments of a video.
The experiment is spotted on the YouTube support community page. While scrubbing the progress bar, you will see a graph which shows how the viewers are interacting with the video. If the graph is high, it means that part of the video has been frequently re-watched, and vice versa.
The feature is only available to a few amount of users for now. Once it rollout more widely, will update with you guys on how it works in action. (Android Police)

Live Transcribe soon can transcribe speech without Internet, also gains Material You redesign for Android 12
Live Transcribe is an app that is made for people with hearing impaired. This app can transcribe speech in real-time, but one caveat is that it still require an Internet connection to work. Things might finally change, Google is bringing offline support for the feature.
Teardown of the app on version 4.6 suggests that Google will be adding offline trannoscription support. The strings reveal that users will be able to download multiple language packs. After downloading it, users now can use it even when your device is offline.
The feature isn't rolling out yet, could be a server side update that will trigger it. Also, since Live Transcribe is part of Google, Material You redesign with dynamic colors support is there. Sadly, only available on Android 12 for now, hope to see it rolling out to older Android version in a future update. (XDA Developers)
