No more dirty tricks: Be accountable and transparent
ArcelorMittal repeatedly proclaims its climate leadership, and its role in industry initiatives for a responsible sector. But the reality is murky and there is a lack of transparency on subsidy deals, grievance claims, climate lobbying, and emissions reporting.
ArcelorMittal: we’re calling on you to:
For every dollar or euro of subsidy, publish details of action achieved, conditionalities met or not met, and greenhouse gas emissions saved;
Disclose details of all current and completed grievance processes, and the due diligence processes you conduct on human rights issues;
Ensure group-wide standards of transparency in publishing pollution monitoring data and compliance with human rights and due diligence standards;
Publish clear plans for investment in assets, including costs of carbon capture projects, any investments that prolong coal-burning assets, and timelines for new plants;
Fully disclose emissions from joint ventures, mining, and all aspects of Scope 3 emissions, and set targets in line with 1.5C;
Stop lobbying against climate action policies, fully disclose your advocacy activities, including your positions on and your engagement with specific climate-related policies.
