HONG KONG— Alibaba Group Holding Ltd. pledged to become carbon neutral within its own operations and cut emissions across its supply chain by half by 2030, as the Chinese e-commerce giant joins other global corporate titans setting goals to battle climate change.
Alibaba’s goals, unveiled by Chief Executive Daniel Zhang Friday, come as tech companies around the globe try to take on more environmental responsibilities. Companies from Apple Inc. to Microsoft Corp. have announced commitments to reduce their carbon footprint within their own organizations and across their supply chains.
