They use cutting edge technology to recycle the functional parts from all the thrown out iPhones for their new devices. 100% Clean energy: Apple has promised that by 2030 all its products will be made with clean energy. They will help all its manufacturers transition to renewable energy in order to be 100% carbon neutral by 2030. Apple’s Stores and Offices: Apple’s stores, offices, and data centers are powered by 100% renewable electricity. Now all of their operations, from commute to business travel, are carbon-neutral too. Apple’s Eco-Friendly Investments: Apple has made sizeable investments to further propagate their eco-friendly ideologies. They are investing in Earth’s natural carbon removers like forests, wetlands, and grasslands to capture what’s left. Apple Trade-in: With Apple Trade-In, people can exchange their old device for credit toward their next purchase, or get an Apple Store Gift Card they can use anytime.
