Fully decarbonizing global industry is essential to achieving climate stabilization, and reaching net zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050–2070 necessary limit warming 2 °C. This paper assembles evaluates technical policy interventions, both on the supply side demand side. It identifies measures that, employed together, can achieve industrial in required timeframe. Key supply-side technologies include energy efficiency (especially at system level), carbon capture, electrification,...
Abstract Cement plays a dual role in the global carbon cycle like sponge: its massive production contributes significantly to present-day anthropogenic CO 2 emissions, yet hydrated products gradually reabsorb substantial amounts of atmospheric (carbonation) future. The this sponge effect along cement (including production, use, and demolition) emissions mitigation, however, remains hitherto unexplored. Here, we quantify effects demand- supply-side mitigation measures considering...
Since the energy crisis in 1960s, crucial research and activities were spurred to improve efficiency decrease environmental pollution. To deal with various problems construction industry are facing, concept of green buildings (GBs) has been gradually shaped put forward all over world, building rating systems (GBRSs) have developed. The GBs covers a wide range elements, its definition is constantly updated as develops. This paper compares development backgrounds statuses countries. It also...
The residential sector is the third-largest energy consumer and emitter globally as such at forefront of transition net-zero emissions pathway. To accelerate pace decarbonization buildings, this study first to present a bottom-up assessment framework integrated with decomposing structural decomposition method evaluate emission patterns process building operations in 56 countries spanning 12 regions worldwide from 2000 2020. results show that (1) operational carbon intensity global buildings...
Artificial intelligence has emerged as a technology to enhance productivity and improve life quality. However, its role in building energy efficiency carbon emission reduction not been systematically studied. This study evaluated artificial intelligence's potential the sector, focusing on medium office buildings United States. A methodology was developed assess quantify emissions reductions. Key areas identified were equipment, occupancy influence, control operation, design construction. Six...
Cities are not only major contributors to global climate change but also stand at the forefront of impact. Quantifying and assessing risk potentially induced by has great significance for cities undertake positive adaptation prevention. However, most previous studies focus on global, national or regional dimensions, a few have attempted examine an urban scale even less in case recent literature review. As result, quantitative assessment remains highly challenging. To fill this gap, article...
