Apple pledges to become 100% carbon neutral by 2030

For long Apple has been a strong advocate of protecting the environment and also worked on initiatives to control the carbon footprint both in its own corporate offices and also supply chains.

In 2018, it achieved a milestone of increasing the tally to 23 affiliated factory plants, who committed to using 100-percent renewable energy.

Apple also announced that retail stores, offices, data centers, and co-located facilities in 43 countries including the US, UK, China, and India were fully powered by eco-friendly energy sources. This apparently helped the company avoid 1.5 million metric tons of greenhouse gases from being emitted in 2017.
