                               Scrap can be used repeatedly as a source material to
                               produce steel. What is special about steel is that quality is not

                                                                                                                           ♪      Then, it is recycled and regenerated into   It will be like watching a film.

                                           So the more steel we use,
                                             the better it is for the
                                              environment, right?
