JAKARTA Microsoft officially launched the first cloud region in Indonesia. In this inauguration, Microsoft emphasized its commitment to providing environmentally friendly sustainability technology.

In the development of this cloud region, Microsoft focuses on the sustainability target. There are several things that the company is trying to achieve, ranging from achieving negative carbon to protecting more land. Here are some targets from Microsoft:

By achieving negative carbon, Microsoft needs to reduce carbon emissions more than they issue. This is certainly a big challenge as Microsoft's technology continues to grow and grow every year.

Fortunately, Microsoft managed to reduce carbon significantly. In addition, Microsoft also wants to protect the community around its data center by targeting water positive, a concept that maintains water neutrality.

When the data center was established, not a few of the surrounding communities were harmed because this infrastructure needed large amounts of water. The more water is taken, the less clean water is obtained by the surrounding community.

The bad effects, people can experience drought. Therefore, the concept of water positive needs to be implemented properly. Through this concept, Micosoft will return more water to the environment than they consume every day.
