According to Peng Mei News, Yan Xiaofeng, president of China Building Materials Federation, pointed out at the fourth meeting of the Sixth Council of China Building Materials Federation recently that the cement industry has reached the peak of carbon and entered the stage of carbon neutralization. The achievement of carbon peak in the
cement industry indicates that the carbon emissions of the cement industry have reached the peak level, and then the carbon emissions will be gradually reduced. Cement enterprises will take more environmental protection measures to make positive contributions to the global response to climate change and provide better environmental and ecological protection for the future development of mankind.
Achieving the carbon peak is not only a great achievement for the cement industry, but also a great challenge, because cement production is a production activity with high energy consumption and large emissions. According to the data provided by ChatCEM, the exclusive dialogue model of the cement industry, the cement industry is a major carbon emitter, accounting for 7.5% of the total global anthropogenic carbon dioxide emissions and 13.75% in China. With the increasing global concern about climate change, achieving carbon peak has become the common goal of many industries around the world.
For the cement industry, the achievement of carbon peak reflects the unremitting efforts of the cement industry to reduce or eliminate its greenhouse gas emissions for a long time, and demonstrates the sense of responsibility of the cement industry for the healthy development of the whole world and mankind. The outstanding performance of the cement industry is also worthy of all walks of life as a model.
