Apple really takes full advantage of Earth Day. He brags with its significant advances in environmental protection, showed the details of its new campus, which will be powered 100 percent by renewable energy sources, and at least in the British dailies he had a full-page advertisement printed in which he sneered at the competition. "Every company should copy some ideas from us," writes Apple, referring to its own environmental activities.

In the photo that appeared in The Guardian and Metro newspapers, there is a giant solar field that powers, for example, Apple's data center in North Carolina, and with a large sign Apple says that if someone would like to copy something from it, let them worry about Environment. However, Apple is primarily targeting Samsung, with whom it is fighting in another major patent trial for millions and billions of dollars these weeks.

In one area we would really like to encourage others to emulate us. Because when everyone makes the environment their number one priority, we all benefit. We would more than like to see all data centers powered by 100% renewable energy sources, and we eagerly await the moment when every product is manufactured without the harmful toxins that we have already removed from our products.

Of course we know we can do more. We have set some very ambitious goals to reduce our impact on climate change, create our products from greener materials and conserve our planet's limited resources. The next time we come up with a great idea to leave the world better than we found it, we'll share it.

In addition to the aforementioned "Better" campaign on its website, Apple has also launched a program to recycle all older products in its brick-and-mortar stores around the world. Until now, Apple only accepted selected products, but now anyone can bring any Apple device to the Apple Store, which will then be recycled for free. If it is also in good condition, the customer will receive a gift voucher. On the occasion of Earth Day, Apple also colored the leaves of its logo green.
