  • New Science-Based Targets for steel will speed up decarbonisation, but more is needed

    The steel sector is the most carbon-intensive in the world, responsible for 7% of energy-related greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. To decarbonise, individual companies need to commit to climate targets – and these need to be ambitious enough. The Science-Based Targets initiative (SBTi) recently updated its guidelines and targets for the steel sector, which now has a much stronger foundation for lowering emissions – but improvements must not stop there.
