I love my bullshit green washing of hunks of metal produced by the millions too. Buying carbon credits from I-Promise-I-Will-Plant-Trees Inc. is still lying, Apple.

My guess is that the largest contributor to carbon emissions comes from Apple's employees living their lives: Apple pays the employee a salary, then the employee uses that salary in a way that result in heavy carbon emissions unless that employee is one of the very few who seriously rearrange their lives to intentionally pessimize their climate impact. I doubt Apple is counting that.

- nojito 3y agoJust 1/5 of their total carbon neutral claim is from purchasing credits. I am sure it is even lower in 2023.
- WatchDog 3y agoAfter apple stopped including chargers with their phones, the marketing department sold it as a green initiative, yet with the new rackmount mac pro, they include a keyboard and mouse with every purchase, how many customers are actually gonna use those?
