McKinsey summarizes the importance of this focus: “Every company uses energy and resources; every company affects and is affected by the environment.” Some interesting facts: Moving a workload to the cloud can reduce its carbon footprint by up to 96%. Cloud computing has a greater carbon footprint than the airline industry.
