More Sustainable Computing for a More Sustainable Future

Steadfastly Committed to a Sustainable Future

To address climate change, we collectively need to take immediate action through systems change, technological innovation, and global collaboration. At Intel, we’ve significantly invested in reducing our manufacturing environmental footprint for more than 20 years, raising the bar on our own efforts and leveraging our experience and international influence to drive change through collaboration with customers, competitors, and peers across industries.

To drive our own environmental footprint to the lowest possible levels, we’ve set ambitious goals. In manufacturing we aim to achieve net-zero greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions for scopes 1 and 2 by 2040 as well as net-positive water and zero waste to landfills by 2030. For our products, our objective is to increase the energy efficiency of client and server microprocessors tenfold by 2030. Finally, we expanded our commitment to net-zero GHG emissions and set a goal to achieve net-zero upstream Scope 3 GHG emissions by 2050.

We remain committed to doing our part and are proud to be a leading contributor to the larger collective effort that focuses on making positive change happen to move us all toward more- sustainable computing and a more sustainable future.
