Apple stopped using nylon bags to protect the environment

In a leaked document, Apple said it would stop using plastic bags at its stores from mid-April to protect the environment.

Apple is one of the big names in technology village striving to make its activities most environmentally friendly. During the recent launch of the iPhone SE and iPad Pro 9.7, the company proudly announced that its factory in the US and China operates 100% based on renewable energy. And 99% of Apple's packaging comes from recycled paper or raw materials from sustainable forests.

Next, Apple is probably aiming for a business environment with a high sense of environmental protection. In a recently leaked memo, Apple said that starting April 15, all of its stores will stop using plastic bags. Instead, they will use paper bags with 80% derived from recycled materials.

In this document, Apple asks employees to ask customers if they need a bag and instruct them to use it during the purchase process.

Plastic bags have greater limitations than paper bags? Yes, the limitations are quite large, at least for companies like Apple. This company sells millions of products around the world every year and imagine how many plastic bags with Apple logos are provided to customers and then become garbage. Therefore, Apple wants to minimize the environmental impact of its business by using only paper bags at stores (because plastic bags are difficult to decompose and recycle).

Along with Apple, big technology companies like Microsoft and Facebook are also actively working on programs to minimize human impact on the living environment. In addition to investing in clean energy at working offices, these companies also support funding for many non-profit projects around the world to study environmental protection solutions.
