Apple, No. 10 in the ranking, has committed to reach carbon neutrality by 2030.
Apple has goals to use 100 percent recycled cobalt, tin, gold and rare earth elements in its products' key components by 2025. Jackson said in the report that about 20 percent of the materials in Apple products today are from recycled or renewable sources, but the company has a goal to reach 100 percent and"end our reliance on mining altogether."
It added that 84 percent of the company's global energy consumption is procured through pre-negotiated renewable power contracts. For the remaining 16 percent of electricity, Nasdaq purchases renewable energy certificates that provide new renewable energy to the grid equal to what has been consumed by each Nasdaq office, with high priority given to projects in operation for less than one year.
