7. Huge environmental benefits Metal recycling saves 551 million tonnes CO 2 equivalent to: 1.8 % of all fossil fuel emissions* 65% emissions from aircraft Increasing recycled content from 40%-50% would be equivalent to: 15% cut in aircraft emissions *metal and paper, according to BIR/Imperial College (2010)

8. High quality metal from scrap Electric Arc Furnace steelmaking - 95-100% scrap metal - tool steels, engine blocks, construction materials Foundries - Up to 100% scrap - statues to oil rig castings BOF steelmaking (blast furnace sites) - 10-20% scrap metal
