Folks this is a BIG DEAL.
ResponsibleSteel is developing a standard to identify and reward companies that are committed to creating a responsible steel value chain, from the sourcing of raw materials through to the sale of their final products.

When you go through the Responsible steel stuff you read stuff like this:
As a multi-stakeholder organisation, we seek to engage the voices of our members and a broad range of interested parties to create a robust standard that serves to achieve our vision: that all steel worldwide should be sourced and produced responsibly so that steel’s contribution to a sustainable society can be maximised. The below is a summary of our ongoing standard development process and identifies opportunities for stakeholders to engage.

When I read the above, I guess if you are involved with miners of raw materials that give back to the community and focus on reducting emissions

Folks ..do you see where this is going? Down the road without this certification you will be excluded as a ...supplier for projects.
