Switching to Cloudflare can cut your network carbon emissions up to 96% (and we're joining the SBTi)

What's this blog post about?

Cloudflare commissioned an independent report by Analysys Mason which found that migrating enterprise network services from on-premises devices to Cloudflare's cloud platform can reduce carbon emissions up to 96%. The majority of these gains come from consolidating services, increasing the utilization of servers providing multiple network functions. Cloudflare has applied for membership in the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) to set science-based carbon reduction targets across its operations, facilities, and supply chain, aligning with the Paris Climate Agreement goal of limiting global warming to 1.5 degrees above pre-industrial levels.
