Apple to invest in renewable energy projects in Australia

Global technology giant Apple plans to invest in renewable energy projects in Australia as part of its worldwide push to eliminate its carbon footprint by 2030.

Lisa Jackson, vice president of environment, policy and social initiatives at Apple, said in an exclusive interview with The Sydney Morning Herald that the next decade will be critical for companies and policymakers in the global fight against climate change.

“These next ten years are absolutely crucial in terms of winning this battle and being able to say to our children and grandchildren that we did everything we could to stop catastrophic climate change,” she said. “We want to continue to meet the expectations of our customers I know we’re planning to invest in some more renewable energy in Australia in the very near future”.
