| Comment |
Mr. Lewis mentioned that we would have to reinvent the cement-making process (including the chemistry) to reduce CO2 emissions from its manufacture. However, there are current processes for reducing these CO2 emissions, such as using fly ash and/or slag to replace supplementary cementitious materials. Also, concrete absorbs CO2 during its lifetime; some estimates put this at 40-50 percent of the CO2 created during manufacture. I am curious to hear Mr. Lewis' thoughts on this. |
