Net Zero/Not Zero

Real Climate

With empirical data and more and better modeling, it has become clear that, to first approximation, the eventual anthropogenic warming from carbon dioxide is tied to the cumulative emissions. This figure is from the AR6 SPM: The relationship between cumulative carbon emissions and temperature (SPM AR6). Article 4, section 1.

Nature-based materials need to play a major role in construction

Edouard Stenger

The construction sector is currently very energy intensive and emits a lot of greenhouse gases. The iron and steel industry accounts for 11% of global carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions. Regular insulating materials such as rock wool, fiber wool or polystyrene also are exceedingly energy and carbon intensive.
