Apple could use Coca Cola's defence on the vitamin water lawsuit.

"no consumer could reasonably be misled into thinking vitaminwater was a healthy beverage."

No reasonable customer should believe their products is carbon neutral.

Unless the product is fucking logs found in the woods.

Great thing we actually have organizations to shit down this shenanigans.

If Apple actually invested in some new offshore windfarms and/or solar farms to offset., I think that’s reasonable. Buying credits from some other outfit - not so much.
