The video claims (2:20) that Apple operates on "100% clean electricity". False; data centers also operate when there's no sun or wind. Only a small portion of the grid's electricity comes from renewables (https://www.eia.gov/energyexplained/electricity/electricity-in-the-us.php). Users of the grid don't have a way to discriminate energy by source
