To offer an alternative view to those bashing Apple it appears they have made solid progress on reducing emissions over the last 5 years. Some concrete stats on their emissions reductions can be found on page 84 on this report https://www.apple.com/environment/pdf/Apple_Environmental_Pr...

Total gross carbon footprint (without offsets) (metric tons CO2e):

Fiscal Year 2017: 27,500,000

Fiscal Year 2021: 23,200,000

This include Scope 1, 2 and 3 emissions so AFAIK includes things like transportation of goods.

For scope definitions see https://www.nationalgrid.com/stories/energy-explained/what-a...

Edit: Corrected yearly emissions
