Reading into it more. They have the local capacity to process it but the scrap is being sold on the export market because the Chinese can under bid them. If they dont have material to meet the local capacity the plants could shutdown, destroying or “backfiring” on their existing capabilities.

In this case it does sound like the best course of action is to at least have enough scrap to meet local capacity before they export.

If they’re shipping it to China and back then it diminishes the environmental benefits, but I don’t know the actual logistics.

There is more than one answer because at different sizes things behave differently.

It’s too bad the field has so much snake oil.

Could take this a step further and do plasmapheresis therapy to remove some from the blood but in the US it cost from 5k to 10k and insurance definitely won’t cover it.

I’ve found that small local gyms or martial art schools to be the most welcoming environments if you’re interested in those things and willing to put time into the practice. The people don’t really care about the preexisting societal structure as the school dictates it’s own and everyone is there for the same reason. There are still some shitty groups at predatory institutions so have to watch out for those.
