Apple's had issues with green certification for a while now. None of their iOS devices have removable batteries, which means you technically can't get rid of them. Sure you can (illegally) throw them in the trash, but that's about it. Same with the Macbook Air.
That having been said, it does help Apple's business model as a gadget company. Buying a new object when it "breaks" instead of repairing/replacing it makes a lot of sense for their bottom line.
