    Concrete is also hugely polluting from a carbon emissions perspective

    3rd largest emission source behind transportation and power gen iirc

      The good thing is we're working on it. Concrete usage isn't going to slow down any time soon, but adjusting the chemistry to be less polluting or (ideally) carbon neutral would have massive benefits to ecology.
