Inherited from Microsoft Corporation

As of the latest available data, Skype Global S.à r.l. does not report specific carbon emissions figures, indicating a lack of publicly disclosed emissions data. However, the company is a current subsidiary of Microsoft Corporation, which has established significant climate commitments and reduction targets that may influence Skype's environmental strategies. Microsoft Corporation, the parent company, has set ambitious goals to become carbon negative by 2030, aiming to remove more carbon from the environment than it emits.
