The material that could change the world... for a third time

Explore the role concrete plays in global warming and how scientists are working to create a cleaner, more sustainable concrete.
--
Today roads, sidewalks, bridges, and skyscrapers are made of a material called concrete. There’s three tons of it for every person on Earth. It’s also played a surprisingly large role in rising global temperatures over the last century. So, what exactly makes concrete problematic, and what can we do to fix it? Explore how scientists are working to create a cleaner, more sustainable concrete.

If you want to get a head start on learning more about this exciting and urgent topic, check out Bill Gates' new book "How To Avoid A Climate Disaster." In it, Gates sets out a wide-ranging, practical, and accessible plan for how the world can get to zero greenhouse gas emissions in time to avoid a climate catastrophe.

    All my chem nerds out there know that for every MOLE of cement produced its one MOLE of carbon dioxide and since the molar mass of calcium oxide is greater than the molar mass of carbon dioxide, its closer to 0.78 tons of CO2 per ton of CaO produced. Nevertheless, this is still a great video! Keep up the good work TED-Ed!

  • @Tinky1rs

    You're right, and if you take the whole process of making cement into account it changes little. Making one mole of Brownmillerite (4CaO·Al2O3·Fe2O3), plus the CO2 produced from heating the kiln and transport it adds up to quite similar amounts per unit of weight. I typed it all out under a different video, I'll try to find it. found it: Calcination of limestone yields 44% CO2 and 56% CaO by weight. If we go to the final mineral, 4CaO·Al2O3·Fe2O3, we get 1 4CaO·Al2O3·Fe2O3 (MW: 485.96) + 4 CO2 (MW: 176,04). Then CO2 is (176,04/(176,04+485,96)=) 26.6% of mass produced. If that CO2 release gets doubled from kiln heating+transport, that's ~42%. From this video btw: kzread.info/dash/bejne/h6GiqLaflryzY9o.html

Campbell, said at the time that the strike was made in the U.S. chain of command, but never elaborated whether or not Obama was directly part of the chain or was aware of it's authorization at the time. You make it sound like he directly ordered an attack on civilians, when in reality Campbell and Afghan forces likely had ordered the attack on the assumption that Taliban forces were nearby. The blame can be more squarely pointed at Afghan commanders and U.S. commanders who weighed the idea that civilian casualties were a necessary sacrifice if it killed Taliban forces.

Usually most people using concrete as the substrate, but using concrete literally means we are supporting their factories on emitting CO2. So I will try to use clay as an alternative.

    Im in the construction business and from personal experience I've seen cheaper and cheaper materials being used. This video is very informative but we are building very cheap. The building we work on are mostly office buildings but we do work residential too. These buildings are built to last decades and im talking less than 40 years those buildings will be better off reconstructing than remodeling. We need to build to last, the romans built with some strongass concrete. We need to build to last centuries. Also work on a type of building which can be easily remodeled or parts that can be easily replaced. There is tons of waste of good material too in the way we build.

Also it's moronic, they are complaining and demonizing one of the most essential life giving elements on the planet CO2 which is a byproduct of cement production. While ignoring there won't even be much cement production because of the lack of river sand. Which I'm sure TED has covered already. It's completely disingenuous editing and hijacking a whole video doing a bait and switch to push a narrative.

    Hi TED-Ed! Great video, I enjoyed it a lot as always., including the message of the video. But there is a mistake at 3:07 where it is said that a ton of CO2 is produced per CaO. Since the molecular weight of CaO is 56 g/mol and the molecular weight of CO2 is 44 g/mol, the ratio would actually be an approximate 786 kg of CO2 per ton of CaO. Maybe the ratio was concluded counting other manufacturing factors, but if it was determined by chemistry alone, then I think it is wrong.

    "I mean how are you gonna get 2 tons from 1 ton of CaCO3" - They didn't say that, they said for every ton of CaO you'll get a ton of CO2. You're right about the incorrect unit though, they should've used a mole as opposed to a mass unit. But then you'd have to explain the concept of the mole to a bunch of people who have little/no chemistry knowledge. Given the molecular weights are pretty similar (44 & 56 for CO2 & CaO respectively). It's still a pretty hefty amount of CO2 produced, around 0.8 tons of CO2 per ton of CaO if my math is right, so the point still stands IMO. Though maybe they should've just went with a statement like that instead of focussing on the equal amount (in molecules) of CaO & CO2 being produced..
