Billie Eilish and Google Maps help fans travel sustainably

Must read

If you’re heading to one of Billie’s shows, check out these helpful tips:

Check out Billie’s plant-based favs🥕: For fans grabbing a bite before the show, Billie is sharing local plant-based eateries in various tour cities, including Atlanta, Baltimore, Chicago, Detroit, Los Angeles, Minneapolis, Nashville, New York, Philadelphia and Washington, D.C. Just search for one of these cities in Maps and scroll down to find Billie’s list of plant-based spots.

You should see me on a bus 🚌🎵: When you get directions, you can easily choose from many different travel options, like walking, cycling or even using scooter share. Additionally, if you’re looking for driving routes in tour cities like Berlin, L.A., Paris, Sydney and Toronto, Google Maps will automatically suggest walking or public transit options if they’re just as convenient and fast as driving.

Choose fuel-efficient routes 💚: Look for the leaf icon in driving directions to find routes that optimize for lower fuel or energy consumption. Since launching in late 2021 through the end of 2023, fuel-efficient routing in Google Maps is estimated to have helped reduce more than 2.9 million metric tons of greenhouse gas emissions — equivalent to taking about 650,000 fuel-based cars off the road for a year.

We’re excited to support Billie’s commitment to sustainability and help her fans make more eco-conscious choices. You can learn about other ways Google is helping reduce carbon emissions with initiatives like Project Green Light and Project Contrails.

P.S. Keep an eye out for Billie’s signature Blohsh near some of her concert venues on Street View while Google’s Pegman takes a vacation 😉.
