As Kevin take down , it might seem nitpicky , but when you compare this to how much Apple boasts on the MacBook ’s immature packaging , it is kind of jarring :
“ The new MacBook packaging is up to 41 per centum small than the previous generation . And smaller boxes are much full for the planet . Because smaller box signify we can fit more box seat on each merchant vessels palette – up to 25 percent more . Which means more product will outfit on each boat and plane . Which entail fewer boats and planes are used , resulting in fewer CO2 emissions . It ’s just one ostensibly minor modification . But it has a major prescribed encroachment on our environment . ”
sure they ’ve got a smaller box lying around somewhere . If not , we hope they transition all of their merchant marine boxes to a fleeceable magnetic variation — not just to align them with Apple ’s own standards and end , but to set an example for the rest of the industry . [ jkOnTheRun ]
