This is patently false. A quick search shows a number of 8% of global CO2 going to cement production and use emissions.
- Robotbeat 5y ago“Patently false?” No, I see 3% in direct emissions from the cement itself: https://ourworldindata.org/uploads/2020/09/Emissions-by-sector-%E2%80%93-pie-charts.png https://ourworldindata.org/uploads/2020/09/Emissions-by-sect... (As far as indirect emissions like transport, the heat to make the clinker, etc, then yeah, I can believe that it gets to 8% total.)
