Embodied GHGs in the Built Environment

As the European Union (EU) embarks on its ambitious journey towards a carbon-neutral future, the construction sector faces a huge challenge: the need to transform a staggering 97% of the existing building stock into zero-emission structures by 2050. This undertaking demands a rapid and comprehensive approach, but it is crucial to carefully consider ripple effects, such as embodied greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions.
