Have a great easter weekend read from @martinroeck.com about initial #embodiedcarbon emission burps of construction:

Totally bummed. I’m rewatching BONES and S1, E 15 totally misses the point of fly ash use in #concrete. They say the contractor was “cutting corners”. The contractor was reducing #embodiedcarbon, people!!!
I LOVE that contractor!
More cement replacement, please (#GGP preferred over fly ash).
“Can we design a building that, like a tree, produces more energy than it consumes and purifies its own water?” asked William McDonough. On International Day of Forests, we ask: what could our communities and portfolios become if they grew more like forests? #socialequity #embodiedcarbon
Lehmstein der sich ziemlich freut etwas gelernt zu haben. Völlig normales Bauwendekursfeedback.
Habe hier #Bauwende Leute befragt und Artikel geschrieben. Wer sich für den #EPBD Stichtag 28.Mai fit machen möchte; der Tag an dem die Bundesregierung gezwungen ist die EU Richtlinien umzusetzen / sich rauszuwinden. 1/2 #renovationwave #red #eed #lca #wlc #embodiedcarbon

With an increasing emphasis on the electrification of heat as the #electricitygrid decarbonises, interest in reducing the #embodiedcarbon of buildings is growing. Does a focus on embodied carbon alone risk giving energy intensive ways of making buildings a free pass?

Concrete + #CO2Mineralization: best friends forever. 🐵 This isn't monkey business; it's a real deal #Climate solution scaling & packing a punch today.
By permanently embedding CO2 in concrete, producers cut cement & lower #EmbodiedCarbon.

We’re not scaling low-carbon solutions because no one is asking for them at contract stage.
The bottleneck is incentives - not technology.
#EmbodiedCarbon #Ecometrix #Sustainability #DataForChange
Low-carbon buildings don’t have to cost more.
In many Nordic projects, they didn’t.

#EmbodiedCarbon #Ecometrix #Sustainability #DataForChange
The concrete and construction industry needs an A–B–C rating for embodied carbon.
No standards → no clarity → no progress.
#EmbodiedCarbon #Sustainability #DataForChange
In the Nordics, 70% of a building’s emissions are embodied, not operational.
That’s why this region is leading the low-carbon transition.
