  • Cement
    We use it to build bridges, roads, sidewalks, and just about every structure relies on concrete for its base – wouldn't it be wonderful if cement actually negated CO2 emissions instead of creating more? Well, now it can! Novacem, a fresh new startup company has actually concocted a cement that eats up carbon as it hardens! And with an annual production of more than 2.5 billion tons, can you imagine what kind of impact it would have if all the cement we used could do what Novacem's green cement does?
