Apple Shares New Ad Explaining How iMessages Are Powered by Renewable Energy
Apple has released a brand new ad called "Renewable Energy," which takes place entirely within the Messages app. The ad is focused on explaining how 100% renewable energy at Apple's data centers enables users to send and enjoy iMessages to and from friends.
The ad argues that since the tech behind iMessages is renewable and environmentally friendly, users are showing Earth "some love" by using the service. The ad ends with Apple's green-stemmed Earth Day logo and arrives just in time for Earth Day, which is April 22.
In 2013, Apple announced that its data centers were using 100% renewable energy. Worldwide, 93% of Apple's facilities
run on renewable energy. Its new headquarters, Apple Campus 2, will also run on 100% renewable energy.
Apple is celebrating Earth Day by updating its retail stores' logos with green accents and providing retail employees with green shirts. The company is also promoting stores that run on 100% renewable energy with new signage.
