Carbon neutral1
Apple Watch SE with a new Sport Loop is carbon neutral, a first for Apple and a milestone toward Apple’s 2030 environmental goals
75 percent reduction in carbon footprint comes from using more recycled materials, clean electricity for manufacturing, and non-air transportation, and remaining emissions are offset with highquality carbon credits3
Made with 82 percent recycled yarn, the new Sport Loop is also carbon neutral when sold separately
Environmentally friendly bands
Magnetic Link and Modern Buckle use FineWoven, a microtwill textile made from 68 percent post-consumer recycled content, which has a significantly lower carbon footprint than leather
Nike Sport Loop uses excess yarns from previous seasons to reduce waste and features a space-dye look and a pull tab with the Nike swoosh
Nike Sport Band uses more than 32 percent recycled fluoroelastomer and colorful, textured flakes

3 Carbon reductions are calculated against a baseline scenario:
1) No use of clean electricity for manufacturing or product use, beyond what is already available on the grid (based on regional emissions factors).
2) Apple’s carbon intensity of key materials as of 2015 (our baseline year for our 2030 product carbon neutrality goal). Carbon intensity of materials reflects use of recycled content and production technology.
3) Apple’s average mix of transportation modes (air, rail, ocean, ground) by product line across three years (fiscal years 2017 to 2019) to best capture the baseline transportation emissions of our products.
4 Irregular rhythm notification requires the latest Models of watchOS and iOS. It isn’t intended for use by people under 22 years old or those who have been previously diagnosed with atrial fibrillation (AFib).
5 Cycle Tracking app shouldn’t be used for birth control or to diagnose a health condition.
6 Fall Detection updates are available on Apple Watch Series 4 and later with watchOS 8 and later.
7 Emergency SOS requires a cellular connection or Wi-Fi calling with an internet connection from your Apple Watch or nearby iPhone.
8 Apple Watch SE has a water resistance rating of 50 meters under ISO standard 22810:2010. This means that it may be used for shallow-water activities like swimming in a pool or ocean. However, it shouldn’t be used for scuba diving, waterskiing, or other activities involving high-velocity water or submersion below shallow depth. Water resistance isn’t a permanent condition and can diminish over time. For additional information, see support.apple.com/en-us/HT205000.
