The plant will feature SGH2’s technology, which will gasify recycled mixed paper waste to produce green hydrogen that reduces carbon emissions by two to three times more than green hydrogen produced using electrolysis and renewable energy, and is five to seven times cheaper. That’s why our partnership with SGH2 is so important.

Steel production could be made with almost no carbon emissions through $278 billion of extra investment by 2050, according to a new report from research firm BloombergNEF (BNEF). Steel is responsible for around 7% of man-made greenhouse gas emissions every year and is one of the world’s most polluting industries. Source: BloombergNEF.

Global energy-related carbon dioxide emissions were flat for a third straight year in 2016 even as the global economy grew, according to the International Energy Agency. The biggest drop came from the United States, where carbon dioxide emissions fell 3%, or 160 million tonnes, while the economy grew by 1.6%.

Australia doesn’t have its own fuel efficiency standards, making it one of only two advanced countries without such a rule, alongside Russia. This will result in 321 million fewer tons of carbon emissions in Australia by 2050. As a result, the average new car in Australia consumes 6.9L/100km, 100km, compared to 4.2L in the US and 3.5L

That’s to say nothing of pollution and climate change. Cars are an even greater producer of pollutants with direct toxic effects on human health. The level of pollution they produce is untenable and even if it weren’t, we’ll run out sooner rather than later. One topic hasn’t gotten the attention it deserves: Russia’s oil money.
