Microsoft has been a leading software company for many years. Our ability to continue the legacy will depend on the environmental strategy moving forward. Environmental activism has increasingly become necessary in this day and age. One notable change was to our data centers. “Our objective is to transform the energy supply chain of our data centers toward greater efficiency and reduced environmental impact. By bringing together the power plant with the data center, we are actually simplifying the power distribution infrastructure and improving efficiency in the distribution of power” (Wilcox, M. 2014). This strategy will motivate us to set goals that are bigger in the future. We must sustain current actions while continuing to find new ways to tackle environmental issues and concerns.
