Description (excerpt):

Cutting steel sector emissions is essential to limiting global warming to 1.5°C by 2050, and to accomplish this goal, decarbonization and economic strategies must include ambitious action in the Great Lakes. To help state policymakers, economic development offices, and regional NGOs support the Great Lakes steel industry transition, RMI has produced a series of state-specific memos that outline:
1) The scale and enabling environment required for near-zero-emissions steel production
2) Gaps and opportunities for policymakers and other state-level actors to support via policy and infrastructure projects
3) Specific site outlook and recommendations at the facility level
