By 2030 Microsoft will be carbon negative, and by 2050 Microsoft will remove from the environment all the carbon the company has emitted either directly or by electrical consumption since it was founded in 1975, Microsoft says.
Microsoft aims to cut its carbon emissions by more than half by 2030, “both for our direct emissions and for our entire supply and value chain,” the firm says. “We will fund this in part by expanding our internal carbon fee, in place since 2012 and increased last year, to start charging not only our direct emissions, but those from our supply and value chains.”
It also is noteworthy that Microsoft intends to ground its efforts in “ongoing scientific advances and an accurate reliance on the basic but fundamental mathematical concepts involved.”
