BIR/KPMG study to super-charge recycling industry's advocacy efforts

The plenary session in Valencia on May 28 began with a potent example of how fact-based advocacy had been used by the recycling industry to counter the inaccurate arguments of vested interests seeking the introduction of export restrictions on Europe's recycled steel. And the meeting concluded with a sneak preview of a heavily-researched and potentially game-changing study co-funded by BIR and KPMG, which will detail in hard numbers the massive and wide-ranging environmental gains achieved worldwide through recycling.
