MONTANA – Montana Attorney General Austin Knudsen, along with 16 other attorneys general, including Wyoming’s, have launched an investigation into major tech companies. They are accusing these companies of making misleading claims about being solely powered by renewable energy.

Amazon has documented its renewable energy use in a document available online. On the financial front, Amazon posted in the red today, while Microsoft ended in the green at the bell.
