Cement's Next Stage -- Ian Riley, CEO @ World Cement Association
Concrete is the most used material in the world after water -- but an indispensable input, cement, accounts for 8% of global carbon emissions. How do we slash cement's carbon footprint? Join the Current to hear thoughts on this from Ian Riley, CEO of the World Cement Association, a global trade body for the cement industry. Ian is a cement industry veteran whose C-suite experience includes a stint in China, the country producing more than half of the world's cement. We talk about how urban mining and local materials sourcing can support cement decarbonization, why stranded assets are a real concern for the sector, and how China is thinking about emissions in cement sector policy.
