Today, Apple unveiled its plans to support a series of solar energy programs to promote green growth and low-carbon manufacturing in China. In an official post on the company’s website, Apple said that its latest initiative could avoid over 20 million metric tons of greenhouse waste between today and 2020.
“Climate change is one of the great challenges of our time, and the time for action is now. The transition to a new green economy requires innovation, ambition and purpose. We believe passionately in leaving the world better than we found it and hope that many other suppliers, partners and other companies join us in this important effort,” Apple CEO Tim Cook said in a statement.
TechCrunch said Apple’s latest project is laudable, considering the fact that its Chinese manufacturers have been accused of polluting the environment for the longest time. In 2013, the Wall Street Journal said Apple has clamped down Foxconn and UniMicron after the latter was accused of dumping waste water into rivers.
