UNITED STATES UNVEILS ITS 2021 SUSTAINABILITY REPORT

In its 2021 Sustainability Report, United States Steel Corporation published that it continues to expand its resources and investments in sustainable and advanced steel technologies, enhancing the company’s competitive advantages.

“I am delighted with the significant progress we continue to make on our sustainability goals and what it means for our people, customers, communities and products,” said David B. Burritt, chairman and chief executive officer of US Steel.

“We cannot stand still when it comes to sustainability and we are delivering cost-effective steel solutions by investing in sustainable and advanced steel technologies that meet business and customer objectives while reducing our greenhouse gas emissions intensity. When they win, we win.

The project progressed as it sought to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 20% by 2030, a 16% reduction over the last four years. In 2022, it was recognized by Ethisphere as one of the most ethical companies in the world, especially for its consumers. In addition, it recycled 73% more steel scrap than in 2020.

For the third consecutive year, it obtained a perfect score in the Human Rights Campaign Index. “Sustainability is embedded in our corporate strategy and affects every part of our organization, from operations to the environment. The efforts and achievements highlighted in the report are essential to executing US Steel’s Best for All strategy and to our continued success,” concluded US Steel’s chief strategy and sustainability officer, Richard L. Fruehauf.
