✅ Phase out hidden fossil subsidies, keep carbon pricing predictable, and reward products with truly low lifecycle emissions.
✅ Boost green lead markets: incentives, public procurement, and support schemes should favour companies delivering climate-neutral, socially responsible products.

Europe cannot give up its leadership.
Now is the time to double down: reward frontrunners, phase out fossil laggards, and secure a socially fair, competitive path to climate-neutral, zero-pollution industry.

Recycling concrete cuts emissions, saves raw materials, avoids landfill waste, lowers costs and even produces lighter concrete. Circular construction isn’t just greener, it's the smarter choice for the industry.

Why continue mining when we can recycle millions of cars and steel scrap?
Steel scrap can be recycled using Electric Arc Furnace (EAF), which significantly reduces emissions by eliminating the need for carbon-intensive raw materials and consuming less energy than traditional steel production (DRI).

Clinker production, the main ingredient in cement, is the primary source of CO2 in cement manufacturing.
By replacing clinker with other materials like fly ash, slag, or other industrial byproducts, the need for this energy-intensive and carbon-releasing process is significantly decreased.

H2-DRI-EAF is a process for making low-carbon steel that uses hydrogen (H2) to produce Direct Reduced Iron (DRI), which is then melted in an Electric Arc Furnace (EAF).
This pathway is considered a promising method for significantly reducing the steel industry's carbon footprint.

Clean steel. Clean cement. Real projects.
Europe’s frontrunners are proving heavy industry can ditch fossils for good.
Now EU policy must turn these pioneers into the norm.

Some decision-makers want to “simplify” the laws that protect our air, water, and nature.
The problem? Once these protections are gone, they’re gone for good ❌

Public transport deserves protection & investment. We must maintain, expand & improve it - not just replace cars, but rethink how we move. Inclusive, fair, sustainable transport is for everyone.

That means more pollution, less resilience, and risks to our health. All for short-term gains of a small few.
