Microsoft will remove more carbon from the atmosphere than it emits by 2030
The tech giant has committed to carbon-negativity within a decade, and erasing its entire carbon footprint — everything it has emitted since its founding in 1975 — by 2050.
Today, Microsoft made an industry-first announcement to achieve carbon-negativity by 2030; and by 2050, to have removed enough carbon from the atmosphere to account for all of the emissions it created during its 45-year history.
