Dangerous #shipbreaking practices often slip away from the public eye, we could not miss an occasion to raise awareness of #environmental and human rights abuses

❗Environmental and public health risks linked to regulatory exemptions, gaps in law enforcement, illegal waste dumping and contamination by heavy metals and other pollutants. This is the reality of #ship #recycling yards in #Aliağa, Turkey.

🏗️ Steel is one of the critical elements of Europe’s #industrial #strategy. To achieve the EU #climate targets, the #steel industry must rapidly shift from carbon‑intensive blast furnace #steelmaking to low‑carbon electric arc furnace technology.

⚠️ Under misleading claims on #simplification, @eppgroup.bsky.social and the far-right alliance in @europarl.europa.eu dismantled the EU’s sustainability rules, including the Corporate Sustainability Due Diligence Directive (CSDDD)

#omnibus

🚢 With a significant number of #ships expected to reach the end of their service life in the coming years, ship #recycling presents a strategic opportunity for Europe to meet its goals on #circularity and cleaner industrial policies

♻️ Have you heard about the Circular Economy Act consultations currently held by the @ec.europa.eu ?

🫵 Does this mean you used your voice to push for a just and #circular #economy that works for the people and the planet? If not, luckily you ended up here as this is an important call for action!
