Apple 2030 A plan as innovative
as our products.

We are committed to protecting the planet.
And designing products you love. Apple 2030
 is our plan to do both.
By focusing on recycled and renewable materials, clean electricity, and lower-carbon shipping, we’re working to bring our net emissions to zero
 across our entire carbon footprint.
We’re sharing our progress — and the work that remains — so you can join us
 on this journey.

A detailed
 approach.
From design to disassembly.

Your devices have more to give.

Protect the earth’s precious resources by recycling the Apple devices and accessories you no longer use.

Recycle for free

Our progress
 by the numbers.

The proof
 is in our products.

The same innovative thinking that goes into creating the products you love goes into our environmental initiatives. And as we design durable products, we’re also using smarter chemistry to make sure they’re safer for everyone who assembles, uses, and recycles them.

Mother Nature
 proud.

There are many small actions you can take to make a big difference for the planet.
