No one has presented any evidence that they are keeping it secret. You are arguing against a straw man. Maybe they are just using a tech that some other company created. If they sued someone for using some of their recycling tech then I am right with you. But these accusations and projections based on assumptions are unfounded.
Setting aside the secrecy assertion, don't we want companies to innovate and use reduced eco-footprint as a marketing advantage? Companies are profit motivated and must be to survive. Don't we want other companies to look at Apple and see the market goodwill fostered by eco-friendly practices and strive to emulate that? Or strive to create even better ways of doing things?
Throwing stones at environmental innovation just seems a counter-productive reaction.
