In the heart of Madhya Pradesh’s steel belt, furnaces burn day and night, producing the metal that underpins India’s highways, railways, and high-rises. For workers, the economic payoff is clear, but so is the environmental cost. India’s steel sector emits more than 2.5 tonnes of CO₂ per tonne of steel produced, significantly above the global average, and heavy industries remain the country’s largest industrial greenhouse gas emitters.
