The greenhouse gas emissions from concrete production are hard to cut but a new low-carbon cement facility is scaling up production of a far more sustainable alternative.

Industry is a leading climate polluter: Our road map shows what’s needed to cut industrial emissions in fast-growing countries.

Cement is responsible for more than 8% of global greenhouse gas emissions. Its emissions doubled over the past two decades, and demand is still rising fast.

Study highlights pathways to cut emissions and lower climate and health risks.

Coal is the dirtiest fuel source – eliminating it is a priority for tackling climate change.

A new study describes why, in the sector where emissions are hardest to cut, carbon capture could be the sharpest knife.

Imaging technique could enable new pathways for reducing concrete’s hefty carbon footprint, as well as for 3-D printing of concrete.

To cut enough greenhouse gas emissions, the world will need technologies that are still being developed, particularly for industries that are tough to clean up, like cement, steel and shipping.
