  • How is Apple affected by environmental issues?

    The energy that goes into manufacturing our products makes up the majority of our carbon footprint.

    So that by 2030, we can make every Apple product with 100% clean energy.

  • What did Apple do for the environment?

    We've committed to achieving carbon neutrality across our entire value chain, including all our products, by 2030 — reducing emissions by 75 percent compared with 2015.
    We're cutting the majority of emissions through innovations in materials, clean energy, and low-carbon shipping.

  • What did Apple do for the environment?
