Lighter on the planet. Right out of the box.
Durable, energy-efficient devices started a design revolution. Using low-carbon materials and processes is the next step in reducing the footprint of every Apple product in the world.
We’re designing the world’s most innovative products from recycled materials. Soon we’ll make them all with clean energy and no carbon footprint. Some say it’s impossible. At Apple, we think different.
Durable, energy-efficient devices started a design revolution. Using low-carbon materials and processes is the next step in reducing the footprint of every Apple product in the world.
We’re committed to one day sourcing 100% recycled and renewable materials across all of our products and packaging. Because making doesn’t have to mean taking from the planet.
This is Daisy. One of the robots we built to recover useful materials from our devices and give them a second life.
Our products will be made entirely with clean energy by 2030. That means transitioning hundreds of our manufacturing suppliers to 100% renewable sources of electricity.
Apple’s stores, offices and data centres are powered by 100% renewable electricity. Now all of our operations, from commute to business travel, are carbon neutral too.
As we reduce emissions to as low as we can, we invest in Earth’s natural carbon removers like forests, wetlands and grasslands to capture what’s left.
“To protect the planet, we must show others that impossible can be business as usual.”
Lisa Jackson, Vice President, Environment, Policy and Social Initiatives
With Apple Trade In, you can exchange your old eligible product for credit toward your next purchase. If eligible, your device can have a second life with another owner. A win-win for you and the planet.4
Each device is measured by its impact on our carbon footprint
and how environmentally friendly — and safe — its materials are.
In our current report, you’ll find more detailed information about our efforts, how we measure our overall effect on the environment
and the progress we’ve made over the past year.
Our aim is to make products using only renewable resources or recycled material — so we prioritise, responsibly source and recover materials.
Apple has a rigorous programme to ensure the safety of chemicals used in our products. Learn about Apple’s strict standards, diligent toxicological assessments and methodology for assessing chemicals of concern.
Climate change is a defining issue of our time. Our goal is for Apple and all of our products to be carbon neutral by 2030. Below are detailed updates on our progress.
We hold ourselves and our suppliers to the highest standards for labour and human rights protections, health and safety in the workplace, environmental practices and the responsible sourcing of materials.
