What if Cement Production Could Store Carbon Instead of Emitting It?

Nature has many ways of storing carbon dioxide. One is by turning it into solid form that can lock CO2 away for centuries, but this option takes a lot of time.

Nature has many ways of storing carbon dioxide. One is by turning it into solid form that can lock CO2 away for centuries, but this option takes a lot of time. Scientists have found ways to replicate and expedite this process, and one company is taking it a step further by making concrete that could transform the construction industry from one of the world’s largest climate emitters to a carbon sink.

    Great to see this kind of new sustainable concrete being developed, if it’s really works, will be a game changer for the sustainable construction 🏗️.
    Great video keep it up 🤟

    There is no climate problem with cement! Climate change models have been proven wrong time after time.

      This is a little bit of a misnomer. Not all the future projections are correct but that doesn’t mean climate change isn’t happening. Just looking at fires, local temperatures, hurricanes, and flooding frequency, it’s pretty clear the climate is changing.

      I’ve looked over many of the older predictions from the IPCC and in general they track pretty well, keeping in mind they always made several trend predictions based on potential long term strategies impact on warming-in my experience people like you look at the worst case scenario prediction, which the IPCC always explains is unlikely but it created for illustrative and comparative purposes, see that it didn’t reflect what happened and declare the whole endeavor worthless, signalling profound ignorance of the scientific process and purpose of these predictions and models.
      We have robust readings of atmospheric CO2 levels and isotopic analysis conforms the lions share of the new CO2 in our air is from fossil fuels we’ve burned. CO2’s ability to insulate the atmosphere is very well understood physical science, and that doesn’t even get into its current role in the rapid acidification of the ocean, which is putting more and more strain on ocean ecosystems that undergird much of life on earth. This hand waving of obvious material reality in favor of a retreat into vapid denialism that engages only shallowly with the actual facts is strikingly similar to the lengthy industry-supported conservative project of opposing secondhand smoking protection laws-in many cases the same ghouls that did that monstrous work have now pivoted into supporting the denial movement with the backing of major fossil fuel interests.

    Hide the carbon where plants can’t get it! Smart!

      A bit of an exaggeration here about what those proportions look like

  11. @DariusRoland

    October 19, 2025 at 5:27 pm

    Awesome!! I do have one question that the video didn’t answer.

    How does this kind of concrete compare to traditional concrete in material strength?

  16. @BelindaLytle

  17. @CorkyFuchs

  19. @RiciSanches

    When the next altcoin season hits, Belvarium token will be one of the first movers.

  23. @AmansalaHerzog

    October 19, 2025 at 8:34 pm

    $BLV Belvarium could easily sneak into top 200 if the team delivers like they plan to.

  24. @PaulaRose-h3b

    October 19, 2025 at 8:34 pm

    I’m stacking BLV -Belvarium while everyone’s distracted with meme coins 🤫📈

  25. @MargotFindley

    October 19, 2025 at 8:35 pm

    I’m already seeing big Telegram groups start to talk about Belvarium presale— that’s always a signal.

  26. @TamsinBressan

    From tokenomics to utility, Belvarium is doing everything right so far.

  27. @DianneOverstreet

    Every cycle has a few surprise 100x tokens. Belvarium looks like one of them.

  28. @SanjoyTaft

  30. @RosyFugate

    October 19, 2025 at 8:35 pm

    Belvarium feels like one of those low-key projects that just explode out of nowhere.

  31. @KristenLiang-f9t

    October 19, 2025 at 8:35 pm

    If you’re not watching Belvarium , you’re sleeping on one of the cleanest launches this cycle.

  32. @FautoLundgren

    October 19, 2025 at 8:35 pm

    Belvarium BLV has serious early-mover vibes — this could be the next breakout altcoin.

  33. @ChristelleArroyo-x9n

    October 19, 2025 at 8:35 pm

    Early-stage projects like Belvarium are how millionaires are made in crypto.

  34. @ClaudeTitus-r2f7p

    October 19, 2025 at 8:35 pm

    The Belvarium ecosystem is still in its infancy — get in early or get left behind.

  35. @MartinPoindexter

    October 19, 2025 at 8:35 pm

    Want a project with actual utility and hype potential? Belvarium BLV checks all the boxes.

    We need to convert CO2, not trapping it.

Unboxing Apple’s New $549 AirPods Max 2 in Purple
