No wonder climate activists are worried that COP26 is a big PR stunt, when even cement polluters turn up to greenwash their gargantuan emissions.
Join our Chief Sustainability and Innovation Officer @AndersonMagali_ for an honest conversation with high level participants in Glasgow this afternoon. We know what needs to be done, and we know it is achievable. Now to do it.

If we are honest? Are there times then when Holcim – parent of Aggregate Industries – is not honest??
Cement is responsible for 8% of global CO2 emissions. Thank goodness that growing demand now presents an opportunity for the world’s biggest cement producer "to change how we do things". In case Holcim has forgotten, the first COP was held 26 years ago.
"Global demand for cement is growing which represents a challenge, but we can see that as an opportunity to change how we do things. #COP26

We have to look at the full value chain from transporting products to circular building design."

But when Holcim talks about looking at transportation, don’t hold your breath. If 23 miles separating proposed quarry and processing plant in Devon doesn’t make the company think twice, what will?
