Appearently climate isn't a big deal anymore when trying to lure customers. And guess what? Airpods are worse for the climate than normal headphones due their batteries.
Folks - they do **everything** to make an extra nickel now.
The narratives are all smoke and mirrors.
Want do something really green?
Design iPhones that are repairable and perhaps even with upgradeable modules.
Let's be real .... a massive percentage of people only want better cameras and the rest of the iPhone has been way more than good enough (great in fact) for years now.
I think the 11 will sell anyway, without destroying the planet by giving free more harmful airpods.
