Google recently announced new sustainable development progress and plans.
Google said that its sustainable development goals were smoother than expected and that it "overweighted" the sustainable development goals
.
Achieving new product sustainability goals ahead of schedule
Achieving new product sustainability goals ahead of scheduleLast year, Google set a goal to include recycled materials in all new products by 2022.
This year, Google achieved that goal ahead of schedule, with the company's Pixel and Nest product lines this year being made from recycled materials
.
For example, the new Nest Audio shell components, including the soundproof fabric, contain 70% recycled plastic and use sustainable fabrics
.
Another example is the new Nest Thermostat edge trim panel made from 75 percent post-consumer recycled plastic
.
Incorporating recycled materials into hardware product designs not only supports the company's commitment to sustainability, but also allows supply chain partners to confidently invest and develop these types of materials so they can be more widely used in the consumer electronics industry, Google said.
.
50% of materials will be recyclable or renewable by 2025
50% of materials will be recyclable or renewable by 2025Google said that it is now more convinced that recycling waste plastics and preventing waste plastic pollution is an achievable goal
.
Google will be adding weight to its sustainability goals, with the company pledging to make at least 50 percent of the plastic material used in all its products recyclable or renewable by 2025
.
Google said the goal would go well beyond industry standards, and it hopes it is a new milestone for companies on the road to plastic-free, pollution-free product design and extended material life
.
Completion of "Zero Waste to Landfill" certification in 2022
Google believes that maintaining the sustainability of product materials is a key aspect of this, but it is equally important to deal with the waste generated during product manufacturing
.
Google said that waste is generated at every link in the supply chain.
After understanding the production of each link and how to deal with the production waste, the company decided to complete the zero waste landfill certification of all foundries by 2022 to promote waste reuse
.
This certification means that most of the plastic waste in production operations will be recycled
.
Plastic-free packaging by 2025
Plastic-free packaging by 2025Google says it will continue to ship 100% carbon-neutral products and hopes to take the hassle out of product recyclers through sustainable, recyclable product packaging
.
As a result, by 2025, Google will make product packaging 100% plastic-free and 100% recyclable
.
To get there, Google says, they need to find more alternative, recyclable materials to protect their products
.
Google will work with vendor partners to explore new solutions with the industry
.
In addition to Google, other electronics companies are also moving towards sustainable development.
For example, Xiaomi recently tweeted that it will reduce the plastic used in its packaging by 60%, starting in Europe
.
This plan to reduce packaging waste may be the first to be implemented on the Xiaomi Mi 10T Lite.
However, the reduction in plastic use mentioned by Xiaomi only involves the outer packaging box of the retail version, not the internal parts of its mobile phone.
Users will still receive all accessories, including Includes charger case, USB-C cable, and a clear case
.
