So, within the steel industry our focus on sustainability

throughout the supply chain is based on probably three main principles.

Clare Broadbent
Firstly, taking a full lifecycle approach

Full lifecycle approach

from raw material extraction all the way through to the consumer

making sure we design products which can be easily reused, dismantled

and then finally recycled.
And the third thing I would say is
[Visuals]
Visual transition back to a full screen footage of the worms-eye view of a forest of pine trees, with a sun filled sky visible through the gaps in the trees.
Clare Broadbent
yes, sure we need to consider all the aspects related to climate change and what we need to do as an industry. But there are many other topics out there that we need to
[Visuals]
