Demand a Just Transition to Green Steel in the United States

Related Article: China is winning on renewables. Will it win on green steel, too? - canarymedia.com - Friday, August 15, 2025, 6:26:51 AM Eastern Daylight Time

Target: U.S. Department of Energy, U.S. Congress, major U.S. steel producers (Cleveland-Cliffs, U.S. Steel, Nippon Steel USA)

Goal: Urge U.S. policymakers and steel industry leaders to commit to a rapid and just transition to green steel production, prioritizing clean energy, workers’ rights, and climate justice.

As the world races toward a sustainable future, the United States must not fall behind in the transition to green steel. While other countries are investing in renewable technologies and low-carbon steel production, U.S. steelmakers are reversing course, threatening jobs, public health, and the climate.

The U.S. steel industry is at a critical crossroads. As China and Europe accelerate their investment in green steel, American companies are abandoning key commitments to decarbonize. Recent decisions—such as Cleveland-Cliffs halting its green steel project and Nippon Steel’s acquisition of U.S. Steel—signal a dangerous return to coal-based production. This not only undermines our climate goals but also puts American workers and communities at risk of being left behind in the global green economy.

We call on policymakers and industry leaders to reverse this trend. Investing in green steel means cleaner air, good union jobs, and a competitive future for American manufacturing. The U.S. must lead, not lag, in the transition to sustainable industry. We demand bold action to ensure a just transition for workers and communities, and to secure a livable future for all.
