CMC recognizes the risks that climate change poses to our business, our people and our communities. We are committed to reducing our own environmental impact and that of the industries that use our products, as demonstrated by the Environmental Product Declarations (EPDs) that many of our products have obtained. We embed sustainability into our recycling and manufacturing processes by investing in innovative technologies, allowing us to minimize the use of natural resources while maximizing performance. We are a founding member of the Global Steel Climate Council (GSCC), which is focused on reducing the GHG emissions of steel manufacturers by promoting a transparent standard for carbon emissions intensity reporting, enabling customers to make informed purchasing decisions.
CMC remains focused on improving its environmental performance by investing in advanced technologies, improving how we operate and sharing best practices across the organization as well as helping its customers and the steel sector reduce their environmental impact. We have established new, ambitious GHG emissions goals that demonstrate our commitment to doing our part to manage climate risk and ensure accountability and transparency to our stakeholders.
In our efforts to help combat climate change, we continuously evaluate and improve our operations to ensure that our environmental innovations and performance remain among the industry’s best. Our business thrives when we avoid risks and identify opportunities.
