At Galvmet, we are tired of hearing all the bad news, so we are going to focus on something positive to talk about. We are going to do this every month. To start off 2012, we were happy to see the news from Reuters that cancer death rates are continuing to fall. They have been dropping by 1.8 percent per year in men and 1.6 percent per year in women between 2004 and 2008, according to the American Cancer Society’s annual report on cancer statistics released on Wednesday. Advances in cancer screening and treatment have prevented more than a million total deaths from cancer since the early 1990s, according to the report.
What does this have to do with our business and the steel industry? As far as this post goes, not much. However, hearing and celebrating good news is a great way to change direction and outlook. We hope these monthly “good news” stories brighten your day in some way. As always, thank you for reading our blog. Please let us know if there is any question we can answer or topic we can cover in the coming months!
