Regarding Deere, Samuelrich explained: \u201cDepriving farmers of the ability to fix their machinery runs counter to the ethos founder John Deere surely set for this iconic brand. Now, for the betterment of the company and all Americans, it must stop.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>Just let us fix stuff\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s common sense: When things break, you fix them or take them to your preferred repair shop. But when only the manufacturer has the ability to repair something \u2014 whether it be a tablet or a tractor \u2014 they can charge us whatever for their work. They can also push us into buying a brand new product altogether, adding to our waste problems.<\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s why U.S. PIRG is pressing for <a href=\"https:\/\/usdev.pirg-test.com\/feature\/usp\/right-repair\">Right to Repair reforms<\/a>, which require manufacturers to provide access to what we need to fix modern equipment such as diagnostic software, spare parts and service documentation.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>These reforms have been met with full-throated opposition from major manufacturers, including <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bbc.com\/news\/technology-57744091\">John Deere<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pewtrusts.org\/en\/research-and-analysis\/blogs\/stateline\/2019\/10\/16\/tech-giants-fight-digital-right-to-repair-bills\">Apple<\/a>, which have been two of the most prominent opponents. But despite the <a href=\"https:\/\/usdev.pirg-test.com\/blogs\/blog\/usp\/who-doesn%E2%80%99t-want-right-repair-companies-worth-over-10-trillion\">avalanche of lobbying<\/a> against Right to Repair, pressure has been mounting for change.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>President Joe Biden issued an <a href=\"https:\/\/usdev.pirg-test.com\/blogs\/blog\/usp\/latest-right-repair-advocate-president-joe-biden\">executive order<\/a> calling for action to stop repair restrictions, and specifically named <a href=\"https:\/\/www.whitehouse.gov\/briefing-room\/statements-releases\/2021\/07\/09\/fact-sheet-executive-order-on-promoting-competition-in-the-american-economy\/\">farm equipment and smartphones<\/a> as areas to target enforcement. The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) has also signaled it will begin <a href=\"https:\/\/usdev.pirg-test.com\/news\/usp\/release-ftc-crack-down-companies-anti-repair-restrictions\">enforcing violations<\/a> to antitrust laws regarding repair. Meanwhile, <a href=\"https:\/\/usdev.pirg-test.com\/blogs\/blog\/usp\/half-us-states-looking-give-americans-right-repair\">27 states<\/a> and the <a href=\"https:\/\/usdev.pirg-test.com\/news\/usp\/broad-right-repair-bill-introduced-congress\">U.S. Congress<\/a> have introduced legislation so far in 2021.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Frankly, it is no surprise that shareholders in Deere and Apple are wondering whether these companies\u2019 stances are inviting trouble and risk for shareholders.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><strong>Deere probed about its double-talk on repair\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Shareholders are raising questions about how the companies have attempted to spin their approach to repair.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Both corporations make their products in such a way that requires the use of proprietary tools to conduct many repairs. For example, John Deere equipment repair might require a calibration process to finalize installation of a spare part. This function is limited to <a href=\"https:\/\/usdev.pirg-test.com\/feature\/usp\/deere-headlights\">software tools only available to dealerships<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Green Century Capital Management notes that Deere \u201crepresentatives are quick to point out that less than 2% of all repairs require a software update.\u201d However, shareholders are assuming big-time risks \u2014 the risk of new regulation, antitrust enforcement and permanent brand damage \u2014 for what the company <a href=\"https:\/\/www.deere.com\/en\/our-company\/news-and-announcements\/newsroom\/repair\/\">insists<\/a> is a tiny portion of repairs. Why not just find a resolution to those 2% of repairs and avoid all this trouble?\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cDeere\u2019s approach flies in the face of the ingenuity and self-reliance that are at the heart of America\u2019s great agricultural tradition,\u201d <a href=\"https:\/\/www.greencentury.com\/green-century-files-shareholder-proposal-with-deere-co\/\">says<\/a> Green Century\u2019s Samuelrich.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><strong>Apple repair stance undermines environmental record\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Apple has ambitious <a href=\"https:\/\/www.apple.com\/newsroom\/2020\/07\/apple-commits-to-be-100-percent-carbon-neutral-for-its-supply-chain-and-products-by-2030\/\">climate<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/appleinsider.com\/articles\/19\/10\/25\/apples-sustainability-goals-continue-to-grow-encouraging-others-to-follow-their-lead\">environmental<\/a> goals and is often lauded for leadership on issues of sustainability. That said, its stance on repair, especially the company\u2019s very prominent <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bloomberg.com\/news\/articles\/2021-05-20\/microsoft-and-apple-wage-war-on-gadget-right-to-repair-laws\">anti-Right to Repair lobbying<\/a>, has damaged Apple\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.greenpeace.org\/usa\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/GGE2017_Apple.pdf\">environmental reputation<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>In their news release, Samuelrich <a href=\"https:\/\/www.greencentury.com\/green-century-shareholder-proposal-presses-apple-to-expand-access-to-repair\/\">notes<\/a>: \u201cThe company risks losing its reputation as a climate leader if it does not cease its anti-repair practices.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The release also points out the stakes of undermining repair: \u201cElectronic waste is the world\u2019s fastest growing waste stream, and by 2040 internet-connected devices will account for 14% of all greenhouse gas emissions. Access to product repair is critical for extending the lifespan of electronic devices, thereby preventing wasted resources and reducing emissions \u2026 Green Century will press Apple to reverse its anti-repair practices in order to mitigate regulatory and reputational risks and bolster the company\u2019s ambitious climate commitments.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>As support for Right to Repair continues to grow \u2014 from coast to coast and even in the White House \u2014 it forces people to ask these companies: Why are you so against allowing people to fix their stuff?\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>After all, it\u2019s common sense. It saves money, protects farmers\u2019 livelihood, cuts pollution and electronic waste. Perhaps it\u2019s time these companies realized this isn\u2019t going away and they must finally let people fix their stuff.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p align=\"center\">###<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>U.S. PIRG is not a registered investment adviser.\u00a0\u00a0 U.S. PIRG is not providing any investment advice to any recipient of this communication.<\/p>\n<p><strong>About Green Century Capital Management<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\u00b0Green Century Capital Management, Inc.
