It would be interesting to ask Apple how much they manage to recycle from the AirPods and how. Would that be asking too much from the article author?

It's not something that Apple openly markets as being a reason why you should buy them so my guess would be a lot less than you think, because of cost to do so.

Whereas with Macbooks they openly tout that https://www.apple.com/environment/

That doesn't sound like an Airpod to me.

No it doesn’t, agreed. But I imagine the design constraints for a notebook vs. wireless headphones are pretty different. I am amazed that the thing can be built at all.
