According to Kyndryl (NYSE: KD), the world's biggest provider of IT infrastructure services, in collaboration with Microsoft, the Global Sustainability Barometer study was released today. Despite the fact that 85% of organizations place a high level of importance on achieving their sustainability goals, only 16% of organizations have integrated sustainability into their strategies and data as part of the study, conducted by Ecosystm. 
The world faces an increasing number of climate-related events and challenges, which is why businesses need to act as soon as possible, using technology to drive sustainable solutions to these issues. While 80% of organizations surveyed see great significance in technology's role to achieve their goals, only 32% believe they are making full use of it within their organizations.
In her opinion, "Many companies are at different stages of sustainability maturity," Faith Taylor, Kyndryl's Chief Sustainability and ESG Officer, explained, "Companies are applying technology to unlock the full potential of sustainability. In order to advance and implement their sustainability goals pragmatically, they are looking beyond regulatory compliance."
As Shelly Blackburn, Vice President, Cross Solutions Area, Microsoft, points out, "Technology has emerged as a key enabler for sustainability success, and its role will only continue to grow as artificial intelligence tools become more sophisticated." It is our intention to work with Kyndryl to drive meaningful change and contribute to a more sustainable future, and we are eager to contribute to that effort."
