Hi Jim,

We don't have any specific reporting to UNCG but you can see here that all Apple Products are the highest standard EPEAT Gold. There is some additional info here which you may want to include in your report.

Below you will find some information on Apple’s sustainability initiatives as well as a listing of EPEAT standards. Please let me know if there is anything else that I can assist with.
