 * summary: Apple chief Tim Cook is largely known for his mild-mannered nature. But he certainly offended some people at Apple’s annual shareholder meeting Friday when he had no qualms about telling investors where they could stick their cash if they don’t like the company’s environmental policies. As Mashable reports, “Apple has made vast improvements in its use of renewable energy since Cook took over from Steve Jobs.” But there are some who don’t like that trend, including the National Center for Public Policy Research, a conservative think tank and Apple investor that thinks the company could be making more money if it stopped caring about the environment.
