support services. Each year, EBN conducts a performance
survey to those 150 EU|BICs in order to track, identify and
analyse the network’s added value to the economy. This

European Aluminium Environmental Profile Report 2018- executive summaryEuropean Aluminium
The European Aluminium Environmental Profile Report 2018 covers the environmental impact of the entire aluminium value chain in Europe, from metal supply - primary and recycling - to semi-fabrication - rolling, foil and extrusion. Based on 2015 production data collected from our members, the report provides accurate and reliable data on aluminium industry’s environmental performance in Europe and Life-Cycle Inventory (LCI) datasets for the key process steps essential for calculating the environmental impact of products using aluminium.
The 2015 data demonstrate strong improvement by the industry. First, the environmental impact of the primary production has decreased significantly (by 21 percent for Global Warming Potential) while the environmental performance of the primary aluminium consumed in Europe has remained stable. For the semi-fabrication (rolling and extrusion) and the recycling industry, there has been a strong improvement in the environmental performance of those processes in Europe.
The full report is available upon request.

An astonishing, first-of-its-kind, report by the NYT assessing damage in Ukraine. Even if the war ends tomorrow, in many places there will be nothing to go back to.
In a May 9, 2024 paper, Juri Opitz from the University of Zurich, along with Shira Wein and Nathan Schneider form Georgetown University, discussed the importance of linguistic expertise in natural language processing (NLP) in an era dominated by large language models (LLMs).
The authors explained that while machine translation (MT) previously relied heavily on linguists, the landscape has shifted. “Linguistics is no longer front and center in the way we build NLP systems,” they said. With the emergence of LLMs, which can generate fluent text without the need for specialized modules to handle grammar or semantic coherence, the need for linguistic expertise in NLP is being questioned.
1. I+ MANIFESTO
MORE INDUSTRY. SUSTAINABLE. CREATIVE. INCLUSIVE
INTRODUCTION PRINCIPLES CALL TO ACTION HOW TO ENGAGE
Introduction
European materials processing and manufacturing
industry have been an engine of creativity,
job creation, growth and inclusiveness.
Today, these must also drive sustainability,
circularity and carbon neutrality.
We are now at a crossroad. The 4th
industrial
revolution is already well underway and the
options for Europe are clear: either reinvent to
lead and thrive or continue with business as
usual to follow and decline.
To seize the opportunities created by this rapid
transition to new 21st
century prosperity in
Europe and globally, industries in Europe need
to be increasingly agile, adaptable and innovative.
This demands a new strategic direction –
with ambitions to match – that will restore trust
within investors, entrepreneurs, politicians and
citizens alike.
The I+ Manifesto is a voluntary initiative by the
European aluminium industry. It is designed
to inspire Europe’s decision makers to imagine
a renewed, refreshed and dynamic industry,
promoting action and guiding the debate for the
coming political cycle and beyond.
Why we launch I+ Manifesto?
Europe is stronger when its industries are innovative,
creating new products and services, new business
models and partnerships, new jobs and new social
realities. The 2008 financial crisis undermined this,
weakening both the regional and global contribution
of Europe’s sustainable value chains.
It is now time to accept that the economy
has changed; recovering to pre-crisis levels
can no longer be an objective for a forward-
thinking economy.
The goal of a truly sustainable economy
and industry by mid-century requires a
transformation that both creates new industries and
renews our existing industrial base and assets. We
should now aim to fundamentally change how
we design policy, creating the conditions that will
allow our industries to shine and become the most
innovative economy in the world.
Achieving this is an ambitious but realistic goal, one
that will require strong political decisions combined
with genuine ambitions and true vision from
industrial leaders.
I+ Manifesto is based on five principles and five calls
to action.
“To have a future that we
can believe in, we must
be able to imagine it.”

Define a new European governance
to coordinate industrial policies
We call for a bold and fully-fledged EU industrial
strategy with its vision and goals rooted in its
wider strategy of sustainable development and
commitments under the Paris Agreement.
The strategy should aim to coordinate regional,
national and European policy efforts. A new
governance approach between the different
decision-making levels should help to define
competencies and be instrumental in meeting EU
industrial performance goals by 2030 and 2050.
This should define and agree on clear,
measurable targets with common goals for the
EU and specific goals for each Member State.
The Commission should appoint a High-Level
Industry Coordinator for 2019-2024.
Establish a new EU forum
allowing business leaders to
contribute to determine an
Industry 2050 Roadmap, in line
with EU commitments under
the Paris Agreement
Create a new forum to define the Industry
2050 Roadmap for Europe. This should
engage high-level policy makers, industrial
leaders and representatives from all other
relevant stakeholder groups. In considering
an integrated industrial modernisation strategy,
it should address sectoral policies holistically,
embracing trade, climate change, public
procurement, the circular economy
and innovation.
Make it attractive for industry
to invest in Europe
Extend the European Fund for Strategic
Investments (EFSI) to mobilise further private
investment. At the same time, promote a culture
willing to embrace greater risk while providing
adequate guarantees and ensuring financial
stability for long-term investments.
Identify strategic value chains
in Europe
We call on the EU authorities to recognise
strategic value chains that are instrumental
for Europe in accelerating its transition to a
sustainable economy. There should be tailor-
made policies and incentives defined for these
strategic value chains. These should reflect
their importance to society and positive impact
on Europe’s sustainable development while
strengthening their competitiveness.
Include a specific EU Industry 4.0
fund in Framework Programme 9,
focused on regional value chains
Large-scale breakthrough pilot projects require
considerable upfront capital investment.
The EU should earmark a significant, specific
fund (EU 4.0) that empowers it to drive long-
term technological transition in the regional
ecosystems of large industries, SME’s and
research institutions.

A complete and functioning European Single
Market – that works for people, goods as well
as energy – is the single most important driver of
a revitalised industry.
Favourable and stable framework conditions are
needed for companies to compete at
global level, invest, innovate and digitalise,
switching to the industry of the future.
Fair and free trade, with a modern investment
policy, to ensure industry produces and operates
in Europe and at the same time competes on a
global level playing field.
High availability of skilled women and men –
both apprentices and experienced workers
offered life-long learning opportunities – is a
prerequisite for transforming our industries.
The European economy must rapidly transition
to carbon neutrality, greater resource efficiency
and circularity and more equally shared benefits
of growth. Achieving this is possible through an
integrated approach to industrial modernisation
that harnesses all of the above, as part of the EU’s
commitment to the Paris Agreement and the UN
Sustainable Developments Goals.
