Apple has taken another meaningful step toward a greener future. In its latest environmental progress report, the tech giant shared that it successfully met its freshwater replenishment target for corporate operations in India in 2023, a big deal in a country where water stress is a growing concern. This achievement is part of Apple’s broader global promise to give back as much water as it uses in high-stress areas by 2030.
And in India, that effort is already making a difference. Over the past two years, Apple has helped provide a massive 40 million gallons of clean drinking water through its partnership with the Uptime Catalyst Facility, which works on sustainable water solutions. But the efforts didn’t stop there.
Apple also continued its ongoing collaboration with Frank Water, a UK-based charity that works closely with Indian communities to improve access to safe drinking water, sanitation, and hygiene. It’s a reminder that Apple’s sustainability goals go beyond carbon emissions, they’re also about supporting the health and well-being of the people in the areas where it operates. 🌏 Apple pushes toward full carbon neutrality by 2030.

This is all part of Apple’s ambitious “Apple 2030” goal, to become completely carbon neutral across its entire business, including its supply chain and product life cycle, by the end of the decade. One key driver of this progress? Renewable energy. Apple’s partnerships with suppliers are paying off, with 17.
8 gigawatts of renewable electricity now online. The company is helping its suppliers make the switch to 100% renewable energy for all Apple-related manufacturing by 2030. This latest update paints a clear picture: Apple isn’t just focused on making the next must-have gadget.
It’s also deeply invested in making its operations, and its impact on the planet, more responsible and sustainable. And as conversations around climate change and corporate accountability continue to grow, Apple’s efforts show how big tech can lead the way in creating a better, more sustainable future..
