I do not know, Apple must be having monthly material science break throughs, esp. when your current manufacturing base in China which is notoriously spews more CO2 than the entire developed west and your future manufacturing base is India whose energy portfolio has 90% coal for electricity generation.
In the methodology, Apex claims to have visited only Apple's Oregon and Haifa, Israel facility, none of its China or Asian based facilities were visited.
The relationship between Apex and Apple is like rating agencies and banks -- you know what happens there.
Overall, I have to say, Apple is certainly using a premium quality paint in their green washing campaign.
edit: Any company that is saying their goal is complete de-carbonization in 8 years is a thorough fraud or has carved-out and does not count the polluting parts.
