Microsoft reported a 25% increase in carbon emissions in 2025, reaching 20 million metric tons, driven by the expansion of AI data centers. This rise challenges the company's 2030 climate goal to be carbon negative, as demand for AI infrastructure grows faster than sustainability solutions can scale. The company also paused buying renewable energy credits, impacting reported emissions. Globally, data center emissions are expected to nearly double by 2035, highlighting the environmental impact of AI growth.
