<p>Researchers find that decarbonization technology for steel and cement is not at a pace for cities and nations to reach their Paris Agreement targets for 2050. To prove their concern, the researchers quantify the current and future deployment of decarbonization infrastructure to argue that changes in the use of steel and cement are required.</p>

According to a new study focusing on the Japanese steel industry, if people are committed to achieving zero emissions, the world must be ready for a scenario in which the amount of steel produced is reduced.

Steel is one of the most important materials in the world, integral to the cars we drive, the buildings we inhabit, and the infrastructure that allows us to travel from place to place. Steel is also responsible for 7 per cent of global greenhouse gas emissions. In 2021, 45 countries made a commitment to pursue near-zero-emission steel in the next decade. But how possible is it to produce the steel we need in society with zero emissions?

The concrete industry is just one of many looking at new manufacturing methods to reduce its carbon footprint. These efforts are essential to fulfilling the Paris Agreement, which asks each of its signees to achieve a net-zero carbon economy by 2050.
