Sony is fighting for the environment, but just a little. The company confirmed its commitment to sustainable development and spoke about “eco-boxes” for PlayStation discs

Sony Interactive Entertainment has released a statement timed to Earth Day. The company shared its progress in the fight for environmental preservation

Sony Interactive Entertainment is fighting for the environment. The company has not only invested in planting more than half a million trees, but also in carbon offset projects.

According to Sony, the company has offset an amount of emissions equivalent to 100 million hours of average console power consumption during gameplay.

Among other things, the recent launch of Horizon Forbidden West was highlighted. Sony explored new ways to raise awareness about climate change and biodiversity conservation by linking the game's narrative to real-world actions. This and other initiatives contributed to planting trees.

In addition, Sony uses recycled materials in the manufacturing of PlayStation game cases: “in total, 10% of the plastic used to produce our cases over the course of the year was sourced from recycled waste”. Sony is making a certain contribution to environmental protection.

More and more companies are advocating for reducing carbon emissions and starting to champion environmental causes. Microsoft is also launching similar eco-initiatives.
