Google pledges roughly three hours of
its annual profit to fight climate change
Alphabet, Google’s parent company, reported $132 billion in net income in 2025. Google's
five-year, $50 million pledge works out to about three hours of that. The company is also
set to spend billions building massive
data centers for AI that it claims are more resource
conscious than others. So far, Google’s AI infrastructure buildout drove an 11 percent rise in the company's
total emissions last year.
