Microsoft Backs Vaulted Deep to Boost Carbon Removal Efforts Microsoft's Carbon Removal Plan Gets a Boost from Vaulted Deep Microsoft’s climate ambitions have never been small. In 2020, the tech giant pledged to become carbon negative by 2030—removing more carbon from the atmosphere than it emits. But as the company builds out its massive network of AI-powered data centers, that promise is becoming increasingly difficult to keep.
