A few days ago, the topic of Tim Cook said the iPhone will be produced with recyclable materials topped the hot search list. According to media reports, at the VivaTech 2021 summit a few days ago, Apple CEO Tim Cook said that in the future, the production of new iPhones will no longer consume the earth’s resources and will rely on renewable resources for manufacturing.
Cook said that Apple is already a carbon-neutral company and has done this a few years ago. What we need to do now is to further expand people’s understanding of carbon neutrality and hope to achieve carbon neutralization of the entire chain from the supply side to the user side by 2030.
It is worth mentioning that Apple has set a goal to not consume anything on the earth in the future production of new iPhones. Although it has not yet been achieved, it has achieved results. For example, 40% of the aluminum on the Mac computer is recycled, and 98% of the rare earth in the iPhone 12 is also recycled.
Apple has established a closed-loop between new, old, and second-hand products, and uses robots to replace reusable items on the old iPhone with related parts of the new iPhone.
It is reported that in March of this year, Apple CEO Cook tweeted that water is one of the most precious resources in the world, and we will continue to do our best to help our suppliers and partners protect water resources and save water.
In addition, in October 2020, Apple announced that due to environmental considerations, iPhone 12 series phones will no longer come with a charger. However, most netizens do not buy it, thinking that Apple is just saving costs.
Many netizens expressed concern that for the sake of environmental protection, the next time the mobile phone box will not be sent, only one mobile phone. With the concept of environmental protection, the price will increase again, or else fewer things will be sent.
