Apple has been named PETA’s 2023 Company of the Year for setting a good example by ditching leather from all of its products earlier this year.
In a statement on its website, PETA, the animal rights charity, said, “Apple Inc. clearly recognizes that today’s conscious consumers want to support sustainable brands—in the past five years, global searches for sustainable goods have increased by 71%, and surveys indicate that a vast majority of shoppers care about the environmental impact of the products they buy. As the largest company in the world, Apple Inc. is meeting consumers’ demands and setting a tremendous example for other top companies by ditching leather as part of its goal to be carbon neutral by 2030.”
