## Resource

They stress the need to balance environmental goals with the social and economic resilience of key British steel hubs like Scunthorpe and Sheffield, where workers’ livelihoods hang in the balance — especially as the government steps in to save the Scunthorpe plant amid soaring energy costs and import competition.
