Concrete Sustainability

Concrete sustainability refers to the efforts to make concrete production and use more environmentally friendly and socially responsible. Concrete is the most widely used building material in the world, and its production has a significant impact on the environment, including the consumption of natural resources, energy use, greenhouse gas emissions, and waste generation. One of the main challenges in making concrete sustainable is reducing its carbon footprint.
