Imad Khan writes how switching to a USB-C port would be more environmental than Apple’s decision not to include a charger in the box.
And let’s not forget that Apple will still need to ship tiny Type-C power adapters across the world to accommodate the new cable included with the iPhone 12. While these new adapters will have a long shelf life, it will cut back on the emissions savings that Apple so proudly publicizes.
This is the part I agree with. What are the environmental logistics of shipping multiple lighter packages versus one heavier one?

I’m just not buying it. I’m convinced that the decision was made for financial reasons and they are using the environmental justification to market the business decision.
Wired whatever is always more ecological than wireless. We are destroying planet Earth and nobody seems to care!
Agreed. Lots of words, but little action.
