Cement is omnipresent in modern life, serving as the key binder in concrete and mortar products. We find cement everywhere: in our roads, bridges, major buildings. However, while cheap to produce, it comes at a high cost for the environment.
ECOS and 7 other organisations urge MEPs from the ENVI Committee to support a speedier implementation for CBAM for cement as per MEP Chahim proposal, taking into account its very low trade intensity, simple supply chain, and low risk of carbon leakage.
