Apple recently announced that it will work with Canadian company Elysis to start using aluminum that has melted in a completely carbon-free process for the iPhone SE. This is the first carbon-free aluminum ever invented and Elysis is one of the few companies that can make commercial grade aluminum through this process. Elysis CEO Vincent Christ said recently that this marked a major breakthrough in creating the purity aluminum required for commercial use, created without any greenhouse gas emissions. With all that said and now there is no way out, it is important to note that Apple has really taken quite big steps to reduce the carbon footprint from the use of aluminum since 2015. The technician managed to reduce the carbon based on aluminum emissions by about 70% in the last six or seven years, and has done so by ensuring that all of its products use recycled aluminum. This partnership with Elysis to start using carbon-free aluminum in their future iPhone SE models will be a further step in the right direction. It is just one of about 50 projects that Apple is launching through its $ 4.7 billion Green Bond investment to encourage the adoption of environmentally friendly production techniques and improved recycling processes, and Apple aims to compensate for almost 2.9 million metric tons of carbon dioxide that otherwise could not be treated. The project also seeks to generate an additional 700 megawatts of renewable energy in various parts of the world. Read below: Global Premium smartphone sales up 24% year-on-year in 2021
