Literally everything fossil fuels are used for that has carbon emissions is being worked on. Everything!
You mentioned steel:

This is growing fast.
There are hard to decarbonize sectors, for sure. But almost all of it can be done. Maersk is looking to switch all it's tankers to methanol by 2050 which can be made with renewable energy. Aviation will likely go with a combination of renewable synthetic fuels for long/intercontinental and electrification for shorter flights. Medium/heavy duty vehicles are already being electrified.
Tell me what areas you know of that I haven't thought about? I'll literally show you who's working on it and where they're at |
