Measure signed into law by Gavin Newsom on Saturday is strong blueprint for national climate accountability, experts say
A groundbreaking California law will force large companies doing business in the state – including major global corporations – to disclose their planet-heating carbon emissions.
The measure, signed into law by the governor, Gavin Newsom, on Saturday, will be the nation’s first of its kind, serving as a blueprint for national climate accountability.
It comes as federal regulators have dragged their feet on crafting similar rules, which could be finalized this month.
SB 253 will require California regulators to create rules by 2025 for public and private companies whose annual revenues exceed $1bn. That affects about 5,300 corporations, including Chevron, Wells Fargo, Amazon and Apple.
If they are selling pieces or components individually, then i would assume they would have an even higher transportation impact. This makes me even more skeptical of their numbers.
As i was saying earlier, if companies like these are allowed to fluff numbers without regulation then later on it will be more difficult to prove the contrary.
Tou can buy parts individually, but its not often that someone buys parts individually unless something breaks. The poont is it minimizes skus (two case designs (13", 15" built around repairability) designs dont go to waste if one thing breaks. They also open their own marketplace for users to resell their used parts as parts can freely be used in other builds.
They dont have much to hide, the point is that they claim theirselves who is pro repair, minimal sku and choose your own ports is not sustainable, then any laptop manufacturer who designs laptops that are going to be desposed if a single part breaks is going to have it worse, over several different Skus with different case/mobo/layout and part selections. As they would heavily fail in the 2nd R (reuse) category.
