"Chinese Scientists Develop Cooling Cement Technology that uses no Electricity"
https://happyeconews.com/scientists-develop-cooling-cement-technology/
Cooling cement technology from Chinese scientists reduces building temperatures over 5°C without electricity using radiative cooling while cutting carbon emissions by 25% through modified cement formulations.
The #cement industry is well-placed to address the challenge of non-recyclable and non-reusable waste, leading industry organisations have said in a statement. 🧱

@beka_valentine #Prefab requires more logistics, tho the #cement to do *"#3Dprinting of houses ain't lightweight nor easy to carry either...
The main advantage would be that the latter could be solid, longer lasting and have better thermals but that's disputeable if not questionable and in regulated places like #Germany all #housing has mandated #insulation and #FireSafety standards...
How to cut CO₂ when it's part of the chemical formula that makes the product in question: CaCO₃ + Heat = CaO + CO₂.
My next entry into what's now turned into a Milken Review mini-series is out
i am shamelessly stealing arts graph here, bc the others are a mess. he's become a tankie but at least he gets his numbers right.
anyway this clearly shows world #steel and #cement production has peaked in 2022 already (not as i first thought, last year).

The EU carbon border tax will force others to cut emissions from 2026.
In 2026, the European Union will start charging a carbon-emissions-based tax, the carbon border adjustment mechanism, on imported goods such as steel, cement and fertilisers – and countries including the UK are likely to follow.
