Microsoft buys massive carbon credits to meet 2030 green target
Flipitmoney
Microsoft purchased 2.85 million soil carbon credits from Indigo Carbon, a move to become "carbon negative" by 2030 despite its AI-induced emissions surge. The deal is valued between $171 million and $228 million. Regenerative farming, part of the deal, reduces soil tilling, promotes cover crops, and encourages livestock grazing to capture climate-damaging carbon emissions.
