In April of 2019, over 6,000 Amazon employees urged the company to release a climate plan and in response, Amazon and Global Optimism announced The Climate Pledge, a commitment to meet the Paris agreement a decade early. The pledge calls on signatories to be net-zero carbon across their businesses by 2040. With over 100,000 fully-electric delivery vehicles and $100 million in reforestation projects around the world, Amazon has stepped up its sustainability initiative, with more progress to come in the future.
