Microsoft's commitment to being carbon negative by 2030 is challenged by a 40% increase in emissions since 2020, largely driven by its AI business.
To address its emissions, Microsoft has decided to invest in direct air capture (DAC) through a collaboration with Deep Sky, which is hosting multiple startups.
The unique aspect of Deep Sky's approach is its 'bake-off' model, which allows eight DAC startups to compete and innovate in capturing carbon efficiently.
While Microsoft is making strides with its DAC involvement, experts note that these efforts won't be enough to reverse climate change on their own.
