The report highlights that steel production, which is responsible for around 8% of GHG emissions, saw its emissions plateau in 2021. While this slowdown stems mainly from lower output, rather than cleaner production routes, it underscores a decisive moment for the sector to adapt & lead. Read more☝️

The steel industry is a significant contributor to climate change – at least 11% of annual CO2 emissions can be attributed to the steel sector. But the problem isn’t steel but rather how it’s made 🤔

To backtrack now would send the wrong signal and not only undermine Europe’s credibility but also weaken the momentum of climate action globally.

Climate policy isn’t just about ambition, it’s about consistency.
The EU’s plan to phase out free pollution allowances for steelmakers under the Emissions Trading System & replace them with the Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM) was agreed years ago. It’s a gradual shift, but a vital one.
