This is good.
It's a shame that Europe did feel the need to compete with the US administration by gutting it's auditing of sustainability https://www.esgtoday.com/...

I totally believe this. We see it here in the Netherlands (and other EU countries) for all big tech companies, they'll build some big energy hogging thing, and then buy up all the renewable energy certificates from the market. The general public then ofcourse needs fossil fuels for their energy demand, but that's beside the point.
Because of my job I see a lot of factories from the tech industry and most, if not all, are trying to reduce their impact. Some of them are doing it out of virtue, other because at the end of the day it's cheaper for them to produce and some are doing it because it looks good on paper and attracts investors.
Now, the factories that I work with sell in countries where standards and regulations are tight, so take this with a grain of salt.
Keep in mind, there is a very large probability that much of the content in the press release is misleading and de facto untrue.
Why would you ever take a corporate press release at face value?
This is not an article, this is a press release. It is written by Apple employees.
I didn't say they were lying. If anything the much more likely scenario is that it is framed in a duplicitous manner but without explicitly lying (in the strict pedantic sense).
Here is a simple question one for you. Find me where Apple provides a clear explanation of their definition of "gross emissions - Manufacturing (purchased goods and services)"; this is the line item that's key to their press release, everything else is fluff and holds no value when it comes to the bigger picture.
I honestly expect our ruling regime to attack and punish them for this. I’m not exaggerating.
Almost guaranteed. Net zero, and the means to achieving it, was basically a Greenwashing exercise manufactured by the fossil fuel industry, so the entire mechanism is full of ridiculous loopholes en par with Hollywood accounting.
Apple has been historically bad with their supply chain. I have doubts.
I don't believe anything Apple says. Lying pieces of shit.
thanks for using Leebra!
go to feed...
they outsourced their emissions so they don't have to count it as their own.
