The magazine features seven key articles:

· Making the shift - changing gear in the journey toward sustainable mobility - we outline the high-impact solutions that could double the share of sustainable mobility globally within the next decade.
· Is steel scrap the new gold? - steel production is a major contributor to CO2 emissions, and while new techniques aim to decarbonize the sector they will bring their own challenges around sourcing sufficient raw materials. Where should steelmakers start?
· Accelerating the financing of sustainable aviation fuels - despite growing demand and regulatory pressure around sustainable aviation fuels, a lack of finance is holding back production. This article outlines how to better balance supply and demand.
· Back to the future - based on cutting-edge project work, the article explains what we can learn from initiatives to create energy-harnessing mirrors in space when it comes to technological innovation for sustainability.

Ignacio García Alves, Global Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Arthur D.
