APPLE SURPASSES 60 PERCENT REDUCTION IN GLOBAL GREENHOUSE GAS EMISSIONS
AppleMagazine
|April 18, 2025
Apple has achieved a remarkable milestone, slashing its global greenhouse gas emissions by over 60 percent since 2015, according to its 2025 Environmental Progress Report, a feat that underscores its leadership in sustainable innovation within the $400 billion tech industry.
-
The company’s progress, driven by clean energy adoption and material recycling, brings it closer to its Apple 2030 goal of carbon neutrality across its entire value chain. For environmentalists, investors, and industry analysts, this achievement highlights Apple’s ability to balance profitability with planet-friendly practices in a high-stakes global market.
The report details how Apple’s Supplier Clean Energy Program has scaled renewable energy to 18 gigawatts worldwide, powering manufacturing for devices like the iPhone and MacBook. Additionally, over 100 supplier facilities saved 2.5 billion kilowatt-hours of electricity last year, avoiding significant carbon output. Apple’s push for recycled materials—such as 56 percent recycled cobalt in batteries—further reduces its environmental footprint, with innovations like the MacBook Air M3, made with 50 percent recycled content.
This milestone arrives amid economic headwinds, with supply chain costs rising, yet Apple’s $85 billion services revenue provides a buffer to sustain its green initiatives.
As other tech firms navigate sustainability challenges, Apple’s over 60 percent emissions cut sets a benchmark, leveraging its 2 billion active device ecosystem to drive systemic change while reinforcing its brand as a leader in eco-conscious technology.
