Sep 13, 2018 Emissions QA: Why cement emissions matter for climate change If the cement industry were a country, it would be the third largest emitter in the world In 2015, it generated around 28bn tonnes of CO2, equivalent to 8% of the global total – a greater share than any country other than China or the USUN Climate Change News, Bonn, Oct 26 – The global cement industry is taking increasing climate action, encouraged by changes in policy, technology and new opportunities to raise profits and cut costs through reducing greenhouse gas emissions The full and willing participation of a sector which accounts for 56% of global emissions is critical to contribute to the goal of the 2015 Paris About this resultDec 28, 2018 Cement is the second mostconsumed resource in the world, with more than 4 billion tons of the material produced globally every year As a result, the industry generates approximately 8 percent of global CO2 emissions, not far behind the agriculture industry, which accounts for 12 percentRanked with CO2 emissions from individual countries, the cement industry would be the thirdhighest About this result
