In this Earth Day special of the A-Positive Podcast, I explore how Apple approaches environmental sustainability not as a marketing tactic, but as a core value that influences every aspect of its business. From product design and materials sourcing to retail operations and cloud infrastructure, Apple continues its push toward becoming carbon neutral across its entire value chain by 2030.
This episode reflects on how Apple’s holistic and transparent environmental strategy aligns innovation with responsibility and how Earth Day is just one chapter in their year-round mission to protect the planet.
