In recent years, Canadians have seen extreme weather events, like floods and wildland fires, destroy homes, businesses, and critical infrastructure.
Carbonation is a natural process of carbon uptake in concrete estimated to offset up to 43% of calcination emissions during cement production.
By "inhaling" carbon dioxide, concrete can act as a carbon sink through the process of carbon uptake.
