Treport argues that the most challenging aspects to decarbonise in our industry are known as embodied carbon emissions from materials, logistics and construction activities. Together these accounted for more than 16% of global C02 emissions in 2020 - equivalent to five times a sector like aviation - while the construction sector as a whole accounts for 37% of global carbon emissions. Out of these big emitters, sourcing and manufacturing of materials represents 92% of embodied carbon emissions, with 43% of these attributable to cement, 25% to steel and 24% to remaining materials such as glass, aluminium, timber and asphalt, Shell's figures state. |
