Apple Music Festival venue gets ‘environmental makeover’

One of Apple’s goals is supposedly to “leave the world better than they found it.” That’s why even the venue they use for their annual Music Festival, London’s Roundhouse, has received an “environmental makeover.” According to Apple’s environmental head Lisa P. Jackson, “We’re making major upgrades to the lighting, plumbing, and HVAC systems; installing recycling and composting bins; arranging to turn used fryer oil into biofuel; buying renewable energy credits to cover the Roundhouse's September electricity use; and offering reusable water bottles instead of plastic ones.”

Apple says they expect that the changes they’ve made could reduce Roundhouse’s annual emissions by 60 tons. It’ll also save Roundhouse 60,000 gallons of water per year and divert over 1,600 kilograms of waste from landfills.
