  • The time-dependent effects of cement production emissions and CO2 uptake through carbonation of hydrated cement at a global scale were quantified. The results show the climate benefits of the CO2 uptake by cement are being significantly over-estimated.

  • Through the use of bio-based feedstocks, renewables, and recycling, the plastic sector could achieve a 58% reduction in emissions by 2030 based on resource availability and technology readiness, and net-negative emissions by 2050, storing up to 270 MMT CO2e.

  • Cement can be reused by including it as a component of steel recycling. This opens the way to an industrial partnership that improves the use of materials and lowers carbon emissions — but only if waste resources are well managed.

  • Concrete production emits high levels of GHGs. It also causes air pollution, with emissions of particulate matter as well as nitrogen and sulfur oxides, which together with GHG emissions cause climate and health damages nearing 75% of the industry value.
