We’re handing out information on #NipponSteel’s climate challenge to investors in Yotsuya today!
Its U. S. Steel deal is done, it now has a BIG coal problem, and an even bigger responsibility to phase out coal and get to near-zero steel.

本日 #日本製鉄 の定時株主総会会場近くで、同社の気候変動対策に関する課題と機会に関するレポート要旨を配布中です。
USスチール社の買収が完了しグローバルな排出の責任が増す中、同社は石炭依存から脱却し、グリーンな脱炭素技術へ転換する必要があります。

The first time climate protests have been made at Nippon Steel’s AGM.
Given steel is made with coal, climate scrutiny will only increase until steel is decarbonised.

Looking forward to discussing this with industry actors this week at the FastMarkets conference on iron and steel in Barcelona.
📢📢A group of civil society organisations has issued an open letter calling on governments, standard-setting bodies, and corporate steel buyers to reject proposals that would allow coal-based steel to be falsely marketed as low- or zero-emissions.

Today, we challenged #ArcelorMittal regarding its inaction amid the #ClimateCrisis. It said it's “trying”, but only as far as profits & policy allow. That’s simply not enough.

Biting analysis of the reality at ArcelorMittal. Investors should be asking questions by now. #NoTimeToDelay #ClimateAction
🚩 #ArcelorMittal is not the “decarbonization leader” it claims to be to its investors.
Far from it, its actions tell completely different stories, with repeated delays and insufficient resources allocated to #decarbonization projects.

Civil society must have its say in the EU 'dialogue' on steel. Industry voices speak for industry, not for the public. Well said @eeb.org
Industrial policy is public policy—it demands democracy.
No civic groups were invited to the EU’s strategic dialogue on steel. This isn’t a glitch; it’s a pattern. Corporate voices dominate the new industrial agenda, while civil society is sidelined.

The EU commission says it is intertwining competitiveness and decarbonisation. Good E3G analysis on what that must mean in practice. #ClimateAction
Europe’s competitiveness push is off to a shaky start. While the European Commission recommits to #decarbonisation as the backbone of the #EU economy, it simultaneously rolls back on key policies steering in that direction.

I'm not sure which is more depressing. That ArcelorMittal laid the ground for amending their 2030 targets for emissions cuts last week, or that backsliding barely gets challenged these days. Climate change is not slowing down - ambition, leadership & action are ever more needed!
Is it just us, or does ArcelorMittal’s 2024 Annual Report read like a “how to avoid #ClimateAction” playbook? 🤔🤔
Step 1️⃣: Backtrack on, or delay steel decarbonisation investments.
Step 2️⃣: Learn to excel at blaming others for stalling steel decarbonisation.

It was fascinating to join the webinar. Nippon Steel shared detail of plans & were open to questions from all - investors & civil society alike. Good dialogue. Of course a stable climate will need faster progress ... but this felt a good step. #GreenSteel

This is SteelWatch. Many of my posts relate to driving change in steelmaking - which is politically tactically and even technologically fascinating. (And I’ll post on some other interesting stuff too! )
We’re challenging the industry to clean up production, & supporting civil society to hold the sector accountable.

The long-term average is not yet 1.50°C, using the 20-year average made from the actual temperatures from the previous 10 years and modeled data for the next 10 years.
Even assuming accelerating warming, the 20 year long-term average for 2024 was just 1.40°C.
But 1.50°C by 2027 seems baked in.
