It is common knowledge that producing steel is highly carbon intensive, and there is no alternative to this indispensable material. Traditionally, one metric tonne of steel results in 1.8 metric tonnes of CO₂ emissions, on average, and steel production accounts for about 8 per cent of global CO₂ emissions. At the same time, every tonne of steel is infinitely recyclable, making it the flag-bearer of the circular economy.
