Kwakhona iApple ibonelela ngeendaba ezingahambelani ngqo netekhnoloji. Ngeli xesha sibuyela kumcimbi we-ecology ngaphakathi kwenkampani. I-Apple ifuna ukuba yinkampani yokuqala engakhuphi nayiphi na ikhabhoni ngo-2030 kwaye ngenxa yoko kufuneka ihloniphe ukusetyenziswa kwamanzi amatsha. Kungenxa yoko le nto ukuhambelana kwayo ne- Umanyano lokuGcinwa kwaManzi (umanyano loLawulo lwaManzi).
Ubambiswano phakathi kweApple kunye Umanyano lokuGcinwa kwaManzi Isekwe kwi-Apple "Iprojekthi yaManzi acocekileyo," eyayicwangcise ukugcina isimbuku sezigidi ezili-156,3 zeemitha zetyhubhu zamanzi acocekileyo ngo-2020, kwaye yinxalenye yeenjongo zika-Apple zokufezekisa I-100% yokungathathi cala kwikhabhoni ngalo lonke ixesha.
UApple ufuna ukuba yinkampani Iyahlonipha ngendalo, hayi ngokusasazwa kuphela kodwa nangezibakala. Ayisiyo kuphela i-carbon cala ngoku, kodwa ifuna ukuyisusa ngokupheleleyo ngo-2030. Ikwanayo umanyano neminye imibutho encedisa kwezi njongo.
Umdibaniselwano woGcino lwaManzi wadalwa ngenjongo yokuseka a ukhuseleko lwamanzi Oko kwenza ukuba abantu, iinkcubeko, amashishini kunye nendalo zikhule, ngoku nakwixesha elizayo. Olu manyano lwenziwa ziinkampani, ii-NGO kunye necandelo likarhulumente, ukuze kufezekiswe uzinzo lobutyebi bamanzi ngokwamkela nokwazisa inkqubo-sikhokelo yendalo iphela yosetyenziso oluzinzileyo lwamanzi.
Kulapho iApple ingena khona, yenye yeenkampani ezinegalelo koku. Inkampani yaseCalifornia kunye nomanyano luya kuqhubeka nokutyala imali kumashishini amaTshayina nakwihlabathi liphela. Kunyaka ophelileyo, inani lamaqabane asebenzisana no-Apple afumana izatifikethi zeAlliance for Water Stewardship inyukile ukusuka kwi-5 ukuya kwi-13.
Umbutho uqinisekisa ubonelelo luka-Apple ngovavanyo olubanzi ngumphicothi zincwadi ozimeleyo ukuqinisekisa ukuba bayayifumana na imigangatho yomanyano kulawulo lwamanzi olunoxanduva. XuShenzhen, Umlawuli weProjekthi yeAsia-Pacific, Umanyano lokuGcinwa kwaManzi:
Kuyasivuyisa ukubona iinkampani ezithe kratya kunikezelo lweApple luthatha inxaxheba kwinkqubo yethu yokuqinisekisa, ebonisa ifuthe kunye namandla wentsebenziswano yethu neApple ukukhuthaza ulawulo lwamanzi olukumgangatho wehlabathi. Ulawulo lokwenyani lwamanzi lufuna oko intsebenziswano nobunkokeli. I-Apple iyaqhubeka nokuzinyusela ibar ngokwayo kunye neenkampani ezikwinkqubo yokubonelela, ibeka umzekelo kuwo wonke umzi mveliso.
