Construction tech could reduce emissions while supporting growth
Actu, features, lmc, Research
An international study with EPFL researchers suggests that large reductions in carbon emissions from cement and steel building materials may be achievable by 2050 using already-existing construction technologies. Production of construction materials contributes up to 17% of human-made carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions each year, and most materials used in construction today are cement-based.
