Rethinking Cement

Guests:

Jordi Bates, Kathryn Bennett, Michael Lord and Tim Buckley

You may not have been thinking very much about cement, but BZE researchers have.

Manufacturing cement makes up 8% of world carbon emissions and rising.

Could it be made without these emissions?

Would a price on carbon make us look differently at fly ash?

Don’t be dismayed.

Michael Lord makes it all clear as he launches the new BZE report Rethinking Cement in Newcastle.

Vivien also learns about the late Jen Bates from her husband and mother. They dedicated the new report to her because of her dynamic support of BZE in Newcastle and to her lifetime’s work protecting our precious environment.

Staying with heavy industry, Tim Buckley speaks to Dirt radio about Whitehaven Coal.
