🇪🇺 Europe’s Leadership Is Working
CBAM is shaping global action: from China’s inclusion of steel in its carbon market to new discussions in Turkey and South Korea. Europe is proving that climate ambition and industrial strength can go hand in hand. Backtracking now would weaken global momentum.

💹 Stay Predictable, Stay Credible
The EU’s carbon pricing and CBAM reforms are already driving long-term investment in clean steel. Changing course now would erode investor confidence & risk stalling projects. Sticking to the agreed path gives Europe’s innovators confidence to deliver.

🦖 End Hidden Fossil Subsidies
For nearly two decades, Europe’s steelmakers have received billions in free pollution permits. These have slowed innovation in green tech for industry such as green hydrogen, DRI, and electric arc furnaces. Phasing them out is fair, balanced by CBAM.

Automakers that want to avoid similar public scrutiny and pressure should move quickly to get coal out of their supply chains and ensure that their suppliers respect human rights and protect the environment.
