Apple 2030 A plan as innovative
as our products.

We’re committed to
protecting the planet.

And designing products you
love. Apple 2030

By focusing on recycled
and renewable materials,
clean electricity, and lower-carbon shipping, we’re working to bring our net emissions to zero
 across our entire carbon footprint.
We’re sharing our progress
— and the work that
remains — so you can
join us
 on this journey.

A detailed
 approach.
From design to disassembly.

Your devices have more to give.

Protect the earth’s precious resources by recycling the Apple devices and accessories you no longer use.

Our progress
 by the numbers.

The proof
 is in our products.

The same innovative thinking that goes into creating the products you love goes into our environmental initiatives. And as we design durable products, we’re also using smarter chemistry to make sure they’re safer for everyone who assembles, uses, and recycles them.
