BIR says such scrap is a valuable resource in global decarbonisation efforts and export restrictions would \u2018create an unprecedented shock to the global recycling industry\u2019.<\/p>\n<p>It comes only days after similar sentiments from EuRIC, the umbrella organisation for recycling organisations. It issued a statement warning that \u2018scrap exports have been keeping recycling businesses alive, serving as a counterbalance to the extremely low EU demand for recycled materials\u2019. BIR\u2019s letter, which is signed by director general Arnaud Brunet and president Susie Burrows, insists its members are at the \u2018front line of the circular economy\u2019, processing millions of tonnes of materials annually and delivering substantial environmental benefits through their daily operations.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018The remaining exports serve markets that have invested heavily in low carbon technology for secondary production of steel and aluminium. This is not a market failure but rather an efficient allocation of resources that supports global decarbonisation efforts. \u2018We must emphasise that these materials are not mere \u201cscrap\u201d but valuable recycled steel and recycled aluminium that play a crucial role in global decarbonisation efforts.\u2019 The letter continues: \u2018The proposed export restrictions in Europe, a continent with a substantial surplus of recycled steel and aluminium, would create an unprecedented shock to the global recycling industry.\u2019<\/p>\n<p>Source: <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/recyclinginternational.com\/commodities\/bir-rejects-call-for-eu-scrap-export-limits\/59547\/\">Recycling International<\/a><\/p>\n<p><p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>The post <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\/environmental-news-en\/7-654\/\">BIR rejects call for EU scrap export limits<\/a> appeared first on <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\">Vastuullisuusuutiset.fi<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[22],"tags":[6356,575,274,17614],"class_list":["post-136790","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news","tag-bir","tag-environmental-news-en","tag-eu","tag-scrap-export"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/136790","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=136790"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/136790\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=136790"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=136790"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=136790"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
