The cement industry produces more CO2 emissions than most countries.

Really now I thought this was all about burning fossil fuel in our cars.......................

looks like someones been lying, wonder who?

Cement production, which uses huge amounts of heat and energy, is responsible for 7% of man-made carbon dioxide emissions. If the cement industry were a country, it would trail only the United States and China in emissions of the greenhouse gas.

Climate change: Investors pressure concrete producers over CO2 emissions - CNN


London (CNN Business)Investors worried about climate change are warning the world's biggest cement producers to reduce their emissions or face extinction.

A group of investors that manages $2 trillion on Monday pressured cement makers to accelerate efforts to reduce their emissions. The coalition is made up of members of the Institutional Investors Group on Climate Change and Climate Action 100+, a leading campaign group with 320 supporters.

*Snip*

Global investors are becoming more active in pushing companies to take meaningful actions to combat climate change. They have previously targeted oil and gas companies, extracting commitments from Royal Dutch Shell (RDSA).
The latest call to action targets four major building materials companies based in Europe: CRH(CRH), Lafarge Holcim, Heidelberg Cement (HDELY) and Saint-Gobain. The investors want the cement producers to commit to being carbon neutral by 2050. They are also asking for improvements to corporate transparency, disclosure and oversight on climate change.
The demands have been sent to board chairs at each of the four companies. The letters are signed by investors including BNP Paribas Asset Management and Aberdeen Standard Investments.

Wait a minute, don't foreign countries have cement industries? Go to freaking China and protest their global warming impact and call back to the U.S. for bail money.

Well, it's hard to break into the industry, but it's still pretty solid once you get set.

The leftist overlords get to stay in their already-built concrete high-rises.

It's the plebes that can only live in sod or frame houses from now on.

Idk about frame houses, have to destroy CO2 recycling trees to get those.

Like I have been saying move into a cave, forage, hunt, and fish. then after 100 years see if the earth has cooled. My bet is that if the world's population became carbon neutral or removed its carbon footprint all together nothing would change.
The problem is age old, man thinks he can and has absolute supremacy over nature, evolution, which he does not. Just saying. So ask yourself who is to gain or benefit from this new green revolution and at what cost?
