Below is all the information about the project: Recycled Metals
Project Drawdown's Recycled Metals solution involves producing metals from recycled materials rather than from virgin ores. This approach reduces greenhouse gas emissions significantly, as producing metals from recycled materials uses less energy compared to extracting and processing ores from lower-grade deposits, which require more energy and have a larger environmental footprint.
Recycled metals are estimated to increase from 39 percent of the market to 41-48 percent of a growing market for metals production, saving 4.31-12.34 gigatons of carbon dioxide equivalent emissions between 2020 and 2050.
