The subject of climate change and the role big tech firms of Silicon Valley play in curbing the matter is a rather controversial debate.
Now, leading iPhone maker Apple is coming forward to support a new bill that was launched in California recently. This was related to providing greater transparency on the part of supply chain partners and how much carbon emissions were generated. Similarly, it has to do with what they were doing to help keep the problem at bay.
Apple says such bills are necessary and that’s why it’s showing the greatest amount of support to ensure the right progress is made to curb the matter.
A particular letter was rolled out by the company's director for state and local affairs and it was sent to the state’s senator. And that's where the specific bill in discussion was spoken about in detail and how it's forcing companies that make billions in revenue to come forward and disclose how much climate emissions were being generated.
Thanks to a new report on the matter by CNBC, we now know how the letter is really showing Apple’s great support of this law. The letter further explained how Apple has been on a journey to promote a healthy environment since day one. This is why they keep on highlighting how important it is to keep track of carbon emissions and ensure the carbon footprint being left behind is under control.
They feel such laws can only help to ensure the right progress is made and it’s a great first step to fight the evergrowing battles against climate change.
It can be said without a doubt that plenty of evidence does exist that talks of Apple really making extra effort and voluntarily stepping up to the plate to report how much climate emissions its firm was producing in Silicon Valley. They claim it was a part of their mission and goals. And the end they’re striving for is a carbon-neutral environment.
The law puts particular emphasis upon a unique Scope 3 term for emissions. This arises from the firm’s supply chain and so many organizations in the state are already involved in disclosing data regarding this front. Hence, such bills would expand such requirements and include this type of data.
The tech giant does admit how Scope 3 types of emissions aren’t the easiest to report and manage as they come from places owned by the firm. The others are simply greenhouse gases produced by the firm that purchases electricity, property, and others.
But that does not mean they are falling behind on the goal of keeping track of scope 3. The battle is on and they’re doing everything to help gauge the complete array of the effects of the climate.
However, the Cupertino firm does realize how there’s a lot of uncertainty linked to the matter when it comes to modeling this behavior. A lot of that is linked to data limitations. However, all companies must abide by the law and go the extra mile to include this type of data.
In April of this year, we saw the iPhone maker provide more insights on its environmental ambitions and how its corporate emissions around the world gave it the status of being a carbon-neutral enterprise.
Not only does the tech giant show support for huge amounts of renewable electricity around the globe but it's also powering plenty of its stores, offices, and data centers with the same. And by the year 2030, the end goal seems to be linked to making its supply chain a carbon-neutral one.
