Embodied Carbon Reduction Strategies for Buildings
2019Global warming has become a major environmental issue faced by the international community. Greenhouse gases (GHG) have been suspected to be the source of global warming and carbon emission has identified as the main contributor for global warming. CO2 could be released due to activities carried out by human such as burning fossil fuels, electricity ...

Carbon footprints and embodied carbon at multiple scales
Current Opinion in Environmental Sustainability, 2010Carbon footprints and embodied carbon have a strong methodological foundation and provide valuable input into policy formation. The widespread use of carbon footprints using existing knowledge needs to be encouraged and even regulated. At the product level, carbon footprints can empower consumers to shape their own climate friendly behaviour and help ...

Embodied Carbon of Sustainable Technologies
2018There is global emphasis on the creation of zero energy and therefore zero carbon buildings. The vast majority of work is focused on reducing the so-called ‘operational’ energy in buildings, i.e. investigating methods to reduce energy consumption within the building and using more efficient equipment and source energy from zero carbon renewable energy ...
