Progress towards Apple?2030
- Apple 2030 is our commitment to be carbon neutral for our entire carbon footprint. Our plan to decarbonise products is rigorous and focuses on transitioning to low?carbon electricity, designing with recycled and low?carbon materials and prioritising lower?carbon ways of shipping products, like sea?freight.
Materials
MacBook?Air is made with 55% recycled content,10 including:
- 100% recycled aluminium in the enclosure and trackpad gel plate
- 100% recycled cobalt and 95% recycled lithium in the?battery
- 100% recycled gold plating in all Apple?designed printed circuit boards and all connectors
- 100% recycled rare earth elements in all magnets
- 100% recycled tin solder in all Apple-designed printed circuit boards
- 90% recycled steel in the keyboard feature plate and trackpad beam
Energy
- 50% of manufacturing electricity for MacBook?Air is sourced from low-carbon electricity11
- ENERGY?STAR? certified12
Packaging
- 100%?fibre-based packaging13
Waste
No established final assembly sites generate waste sent to landfill as part of Apple’s Zero Waste Programme14
Smarter chemistry15
- All of the materials used in Apple products, accessories and packaging are covered by the requirements of our Regulated Substances Specification(PDF) opens in new tab, which was one of the first in industry to restrict the use of key substances of concern. See the latest En-viron-men-tal Progress Report(PDF) opens in new tab to understand Apple’s recent efforts in phasing out these chemistries.
