NAEE
Green Steel
With funding from the steel industry, NAEE has produced a freely-available resource for chemistry and science teachers which explores what steel-makers across the globe are doing to find low-carbon and zero-carbon routes to steel in the face of global warming and climate change. The publication is available online and aims to provide an up to date image of the industry, as well as what is being done to reduce and/or eliminate the amount of CO2 generated.
