Iplanethi igcwele izimbobo. Noma yikuphi lapho sibheka khona, akunandaba nezwe noma umbala wombuso walo, umuntu ubhoboza iplanethi efuna izinto zokwakha ngawo ukwenza imikhiqizo esiyisebenzisa nsuku zonke, imvamisa, imiphumela engemihle, ikakhulukazi ezindaweni ezithintekile zendawo, idlula izinzuzo. Futhi ngenxa yalesi sizathu, i-Apple ithathe isinqumo sokuthatha imizamo yayo ekuvikeleni imvelo igxathu elilandelayo.
Sonke siyazi ukuthi i-Apple inedumela lokuba ngenye yezinkampani ezikhathazeke kakhulu ngezemvelo futhi manje, ngenxa yokushicilelwa kombiko wakamuva wenkampani i-Environmental Responsibility Report 2017, kuzoba njalo kakhulu. I-Apple isizimisele "ukuyeka ukumba umhlaba ngokuphelele".
I-Apple ithi 'CHA' ezimayini
Inkampani yaseCupertino isanda kuthatha igxathu elibalulekile eliya phambili ngenhloso eqinile yokuvikela iplanethi esihlala kuyo nempilo yazo zonke izidalwa ezihlala kuyo. Izimayini kuyinkinga enkulu emvelweni, ikakhulukazi uma kukhulunywa ngezinto ezithile ezingaba yingozi empilweni nezisetshenziswa ekwenziweni kwezinto eziningi zobuchwepheshe esizisebenzisa nsuku zonke. Kepha izinkinga ezitholwe ezimayini azigcini ngemvelo kuphela, futhi kubangela ukungalingani okukhulu kwezomnotho nakwezenhlalo.

Kukho konke lokhu, kufayela le- Umbiko Wokuzibophezela Kwezemvelo 2017, I-Apple izwakalisa ukukholelwa kwayo okuqinile ukuthi ubuchwepheshe kumele buphephe kulabo abayisebenzisayo, ngenkathi bevuma, futhi, iqiniso lokushintsha kwesimo sezulu neqiniso lokuthi "Izinsiza zomhlaba ngeke zihlale unomphela".
Ukwenza kabusha kabusha isihluthulelo, kepha inqubo ayilula kangako
Isixazululo, inkampani ithi, ukuthola ifomula elihlanganisa ngempumelelo lezi zici, yingakho isho inhloso yayo eqinile yenza amadivayisi asebenzise izinto ezenziwe kabusha kuphela, okubandakanya i-aluminium, ithusi, ithini, kanye ne-tungsten.
Kodwa-ke, le njongo ine isithiyo esibi endleleni, futhi ukuthi i-Apple namanje ayazi ukuthi ingawakha kanjani amadivayisi ngezinto zokwenziwa kabusha ezenziwe ngamaphesenti ayikhulu, yize ithi isivele iyasebenza.
ULisa Jackson, iphini likamongameli wezemvelo, inqubomgomo kanye nezinhlelo zomphakathi, uveze ingxoxo ukuthi ukunyakaza okungajwayelekile njengoba kubalulekile, hhayi nje ngoba kucabanga umfutho wokuthuthuka komkhakha esikhathini esizayo ngenhloso ethile, kepha futhi ngoba ezikhathini ezimbalwa kakhulu, inkampani yenza umgomo obala ngaphandle kokuba ithole indlela ozokwazi ukuyifinyelela ngayo.
UJackson uphinde wachaza kwinhlolokhono ukuthi, ngalesi sikhathi, Inani elincane kuphela lokuphakathi kwe-iPhone livela ezintweni ezivuselelwa kabusha. Noma kunjalo, inhloso yenkampani ukuthi isikhathi eside sihlanganise izinsimbi ezisezingeni eliphakeme ezenziwe kabusha ezivela kubahlinzeki nalokho okutholwe emikhiqizweni ye-Apple ebuyiswa ngabathengi, futhi ngaleyo ndlela kwakheke zonke izinhlobo zamadivayisi. Ngokuya ihlonipha imvelo futhi lokho kuzokwenza kulula ukuqeda izimayini.
Ukuhamba ngamabomu kwe-Apple kusuka ezimayini kusetshenziswe izinto ezenziwe kabusha kubaluleke kakhulu futhi kubaluleke kakhulu. Esikhathini esedlule, inkampani ithole ukugxekwa nezikhalazo ezahlukahlukene ezisuselwa ekuxhashazweni kwezimayini, ezinye zazo zibucayi njengaleso esenzeka ngonyaka owedlule lapho uphenyo I-Amnesty International isho lokho Abaphakeli bebhetri bakwa-Apple babesebenzisa i-cobalt emayini ezimayini lapho ukusetshenziswa kwezingane kwakungokoqobo.
Izinsolo zokuxhashazwa ngokungemthetho kwezimayini zikathayela nazo zenzekile ezikhathini ezehlukene.
Siyethemba i-Apple izoqhubekela phambili ngezinyathelo eziqinile nezisheshayo maqondana nalokhu, nokuthi amanye amafemu emhlabeni wonke alandela indlela efanayo.
