Apple and the Environment
Today, Apple is carbon neutral for global corporate operations, and we are focused on our Apple 2030 goal to make every product carbon neutral.
Acoustic Performance
Declared noise emission values in accordance with ECMA-109
| Sound Power Level L W A,m (B) | Sound Pressure Level Operator Position L p A,m (dB) |
---|---|---|
Idle | 1.7 (K V = 0.3) | 6 |
Wireless web | 1.6 (K V = 0.3) | 6 |
L W A,m is the mean A-weighted sound power level, rounded to the nearest 0.1 B.
L p A,m is the mean A-weighted sound pressure level measured at operator position (rounded to the nearest 1 dB).
1 B (bel) = 10 dB (decibel).
K v is the statistical adder for computing upper-limit of A-weighted sound power level.
The quantity, L W A,c (formerly called L W Ad) may be computed from the sum of L W A,m and K v .
The wireless web test browses 6 tabs with a mix of content including media.
Configuration tested: M3, 8-core CPU, 8-core GPU, 8GB unified memory, 256GB storage.
1GB = 1 billion bytes and 1TB = 1 trillion bytes; actual formatted capacity less.
Wi‑Fi 6E available in countries and regions where supported.
Weight varies by configuration and manufacturing process.
iMovie, GarageBand, Pages, Numbers and Keynote are available on the Mac App Store. Downloading apps requires an Apple ID and a device that is compatible with the OS version required for each app.
Data accurate as of product launch.
Product recycled or renewable content is the mass of certified recycled material relative to the overall mass of the device, not including packaging or in-box accessories.
Excludes trace amount of rare earth elements found outside the magnets and accounting for less than 0.5% of the total found in the device.

Apple’s Regulated Substances Specification describes Apple’s restrictions on the use of certain chemical substances in materials in Apple products, accessories, manufacturing processes, and packaging used for shipping products to Apple’s end customers. Restrictions are derived from international laws or directives, regulatory agencies, eco-label requirements, environmental standards and Apple policies. Every Apple product is free of PVC and phthalates except for AC power leads in India, Thailand (for two-pin AC power leads) and the Republic of Korea, where we continue to seek government approval for our PVC and phthalates replacement. Apple products comply with the European Union Directive 2011/65/EU and its amendments, including exemptions for the use of lead such as high-temperature solder. Apple is working to phase out the use of these exempted substances for new products where technically possible.
We estimate emissions savings from supplier clean electricity by allocating to our carbon model clean electricity generated by our suppliers in the prior fiscal year, based on the supplier manufacturing allocations at time of product launch.
Carbon reductions are calculated against a baseline scenario: 1) No use of clean electricity for manufacturing or product use, beyond what is already available on the grid (based on regional emissions factors). 2) Apple’s carbon intensity of key materials as of 2015 (our baseline year for our 2030 product carbon-neutrality goal). Carbon intensity of materials reflects use of recycled content and production technology. 3) Apple’s average mix of transportation modes (air, rail, sea, land) by product line across three years (fiscal years 2017 to 2019) to best capture the baseline transportation emissions of our products.
