Big Tech’s AI Boom Hits Climate Promises Hard

Douglas McIntyre, Editor-in-Chief at Climate Crisis 24/7, reveals how major tech companies are falling short on their climate promises. Originally pledging to be net zero by 2030, firms like Apple, Amazon, and Microsoft now face a climate credibility crisis. A report by New Climate warns that the soaring energy needs of AI and cloud computing could make these companies some of the largest polluters in the U.S. McIntyre highlights how the tech sector’s environmental goals are being compromised by its own innovations.
