That is A LOT of Steel

As reported by MEPS, and highlighted by SteelOnTheNet, the 2006 global steel output is estimated to be 1.215 billion metric tons. The 1 billionth metric ton is projected to be produced on October 27, 2006, the 300th day of the year. This is 23 days sooner than in 2005, where the billionth metric ton was produced around November 19. Like Christmas sales starting earlier and earlier each year, pretty soon we will reach the milestone at the end of the summer.
