How rosy or green is the future for European steel industry?: A Greens/EFA conference

Event Description
The future of steel industry is a crucial question in European industrial policy. There's no question that the European steel industry is under considerable competitive pressures from overseas. Ignoring that or giving up on the European steel industry is no option for Greens since we are convinced that a highly energy and resource efficiency industry will be an indispensable partner for the green industrial revolution that we pursue. Reconciling economic concerns with environmental ones, innovation needs with competition issues, employment challenges with low-carbon strategies will by no means be an easy task. This is why we are organising a hearing with representatives from industry, trade unions, NGOs and academia to investigate in more details possible common approaches and successful solutions. Join Greens/EFA Members and high level experts to discuss these important questions.
