4 Dividend Stocks Offering Double-Digit Yields: An Easy Way To Earn Passive Income

Carbon emissions and climate change are well known, so many global companies are concerned about this factor. Today it is more of a reputation issue. Amazon said that its carbon footprint increased by 18% last year. The reason is the strong expansion of e-commerce in the pandemic era. Amazon promises to reach zero emissions by 2040.
Today, the company is working to introduce electric cars, which can reduce carbon emissions in the air. There are also several ambitious projects that aim to remove carbon from the atmosphere. But at the same time, such ambitious projects can significantly affect Amazon’s operations.
Such an investment would force the company to cut costs for business expansion. The world’s largest online retailer emitted 71.54 million metric tons of carbon dioxide equivalent last year.
The company first released emissions data in 2019. In 3 years, that figure has increased by 40%. However, Amazon’s carbon intensity of operations-the ratio of emissions to gross sales-reduced by 1.9%. This points to more efficient logistics and warehousing operations.
In its recent report, Amazon points out that the company has to face significant challenges on the road to minimal carbon emissions. There are a number of advanced technologies and developments that make it possible to achieve the desired result. The only problem is that integrating them into a functioning system can be too expensive, even for a giant like Amazon.
