Steve Jobs once said, ‘’ Innovation distinguishes between a leader and a follower.’’ Too many people underestimate the revolutionary Apple Company. Apple is pure genius. It is the leader of our environment, our technology and our lifestyle. Too much people think that Apple is wicked for the environment and that it will affect us in the future. The reason they believe this is because they assume that Apple’s factories release gases that are harmful to the environment. Let me prove them wrong. Apple is a leader for the environment. The company takes rigorous approach for measuring their environmental impact. Moreover, according to the CERES Climate Declaration, we don’t know any company in this industry that goes so far in measuring, verifying and disclosing its carbon emissions, except for Apple. In addition, when they calculated their carbon emissions in 2012, it had actually dropped 3 percent. The company is committed to continuing to reduce its greenhouse gas emissions. According to Apple website, its goal is to power all Apple corporate offices, retail stores and data centers entirely with energy from renewable sources such as solar, wind and many more.

According to Paul Taylor, a fund manager at BMO Harris Private Banking in Toronto, Ontario shipped 2.08 million BlackBerrys last year in Canada, while Apple sold 2.85 million iPhones there.

If you are a teenager or young adult looking for a compelling and intriguing book to read, then I would recommend Apple and Rain, written by award winning author Sarah Crossan. When I first picked up the book, I did not think that I would enjoy it as much as I did. There were plenty of realistic and relatable events throughout the novel.
Apple is a king in the technology world; poisoning every area of the industry that they have introduced a product too. They are slowly weeding their competition out. The only a company thrives in the thorn bush market is if they are in cahoots with apple. Apples co-founder Steve Jobs, started the company with all intention of dominating the market. The only obstacle for them is the Anti-trust law created ages ago. Apple, in their attempt to take the market over, has been racking up evidence against themselves. There reach has leaped boarders and even caught the attention of the European Union. Apple is pushing their boundaries and in the future will eventually cross the line in to monopolistic actions.
Apple has transformed from a computer genius to a powerhouse of all technology. “Jobs’ genius was in impressing his visions upon people,” and with each new advice the amazement of Apple followers strengthened (“Apple Computers”). Apple has created an illusion of a perfect society. With greater, more advanced technology, people believe that the world can only continue getting better. Customers have bought so mentally into Apples mission that they cringe at seeing someone using another device brand. Not only does Apple create an easier way to get everyday tasks complete, they make it look good too, “Jobs played a directive role at Apple in the development of products that were both elegant and tasteful” (“Apple llc Computer”). In today’s society the people are brainwashed by advancements which portray nothing less than a picture-perfect society, a

Consumers see that the company cares not only about making a profit, but about the planet and that is one of the reasons that they choose Apple products over any other company. Apple is so dedicated to environmental issues that they even have a page where any consumer can view what they are doing and how they are doing it. In the Apple website states, “In 2015, 93 percent of the company energy came from renewable sources. And we are constantly looking for ways to reach 100 percent.” (Apple.com) In addition, the company is involved in other very important initiatives such as; supporting local communities, water consumption, recycling, and CO2 emission. One can say that Apple Inc. is not only developing the newest technologies, but is also trying to figure out ways to become a more environmental friendly

According to a recent article in The Guardian, a global financial news website, “Apple set a record by becoming the first company to be valued at over $700bn (£446bn).” (Fletcher, N. 2014) This comes as no surprise to the average computer aficionado and shareholder as Apple has been making a name for itself since its inception.

Apple is a company that has been round for many years. There are over 55 million people who use an apple product or are considered to have at least one apple product in their home. The apple products range from larger devices such as there amazingly known Mac books which are there computer based system to there much small hand held based device called the iPhone. That device allows a person to make calls all while have the convent amenities that a laptop would have. They also have the very popular iPod as well as Apple TV. They have expanded into an empire that everyone is trying to become as well as beat. As many people know there is history and hard work that has to take place in order for a business to be successful. Many people will refer to the success of apple as the underdog company that made despite the odds. Founder Steve Jobs was a regular person with a dream. He started of building an Apple computer in his parent’s living room and later moved to the garage true to lack of space. Later on in his building career a neighbor of Steve Jobs introduced him to Stephen Gary Wonzniak. Wonzniak was an engineer and Jobs was a market maven and together they have the skills to build and properly promote. The computer they were trying to promote was fairly expensive computer. Jobs was so dedicated to this idea of transforming this computer from what it was to something that is able to be sold to the public he reached out to Bill Hewlett and asked him to donate some parts for a class projects .

Developing, designing creating consumer electronics, computer software, online services. Well-known for the iPhone, iPad and Mac computers, Siri and the IOS operating systems which transfers and sync on all apple devices with just one click.

Apple is significant to me since my Blackberry crashed twice (I lost everything), Apple’s Icloud stores all your information in one step in the cloud. Imagine the world
The environmental performance of numerous tech companies has been evaluated and since Apple has grown over time, it has received more attention. There has been a frequent campaign against Apple by different environmental organisations such as Greenpeace requesting for the elimination of hardware components that are non-recyclable hardware components, a comprehensive plan that would make the products of Apple not end up in the waste and the removal of toxins from iPhone hardware (Apple Inc. 2016). As much as such campaigns affect the operations of Apple Inc., they are good since they help in the conservation of the environment thus having a good impact on the
Taking a step back into Apple's product history, and noticing how ancient the first products seem, compared to the sleek, "cool" products of today, will leave you feeling inspired. Apple has gained technological superiority over its competitors, but how and does Apple plan to continue its advantageous market share in such a rapid, fast-paced technological era? Apple has a cult like following, consumers who are anticipating and ready to purchase new Apple products as soon as they are released. Technology has become second nature and a very important aspect of millions of consumers' lives.
We think Steve Jobs was a successful leader because he was imaginative, passionate about his job, he had the ability to push employees to create new things, had confidence, and believed in collaboration. Under Steve Jobs' leadership Apple was an innovative company and under Tim Cook's leadership Apple is now being seen as more of charitable, socially and ethically responsible company. While [he’s heard the repeated refrains that “Apple can’t innovate under Tim,” that the company needed a low-cost iPhone to thwart the progress of Google’s Android, that Cook never could replicate the Jobs magic—and therefore that Apple never again would be “insanely great.” ] (Lashinsky, 2015), he hasn’t changed his methods since Jobs’ passing and continues to lead in a way that he believes will raise Apple’s value in the eyes of society.
There are many role models in the world. They may be individuals or an oranization but their success is inspiring for others and we try to find out the reasons for such a brilliant succes. This is the case with Apple as well tat has enjoyed this status since 1981.
