Infosys has unveiled an ambitious new goal: to remove more carbon from the atmosphere than it emits by 2030, moving beyond carbon neutrality to become climate positive. This bold commitment, part of the company’s refreshed “ESG Vision 2030,” positions Infosys as a global leader in sustainability and responsible business.
Key Highlights
• Infosys plans to reduce absolute Scope 1 and 2 emissions by 90% from 2020 levels and Scope 3 emissions by 40% by 2030.
• The company will remain carbon neutral through 2029, then shift to sequestering more carbon than it emits—setting a new benchmark for the IT sector.
• Infosys has already achieved carbon neutrality for six consecutive years and increased water holding capacity by 4.3 billion liters through lake rejuvenation projects.
• The ESG Vision 2030 also includes empowering over 18 million people with digital skills, creating 500,000+ employment opportunities, and maintaining a gender-diverse workforce with 45% women.
• Infosys continues to be recognized as one of the World’s Most Ethical Companies and a leader in data privacy and information security.
Outlook
As global demands for sustainable business intensify, Infosys’ climate positive target is expected to strengthen its competitive edge, deepen client trust, and inspire broader industry action. The company’s integrated approach to ESG—spanning climate, community, and corporate governance—sets a new bar for responsible growth in the digital era.
