Apple Commits to 100% Carbon Neutrality (.PDF Download)

Apple just unveiled a new plan to become carbon neutral across its entire business, manufacturing supply chain and product life cycle by 2030. Already carbon neutral in its global corporate operations, the company’s new commitment means that by 2030, every Apple device sold will have net zero climate impact.

“Businesses have a profound opportunity to help build a more sustainable future, one born of our common concern for the planet we share,” said Tim Cook, Apple’s CEO, in a press release. “The innovations powering our environmental journey are not only good for the planet — they’ve helped us make our products more energy efficient and bring new sources of clean energy online around the world.”
