    Materials Research Cement Alternatives
    Concrete is a good example of a material that most of us encounter every day, but may its carbon footprint is not obvious. What other everyday materials might have a large carbon footprint? How can you find out more?

    I think fossil fuels also have a large carbon footprint. Coal is a good example and we really need to use less of it. As much as I'd like to take a big step, we need to take small steps to reduce our carbon and I think we must use ess carbon.

    I liked the trees you know. When you look at a tree, it's honestly pretty interesting. Walking around you also get to think a lot.
