Researchers propose using basalt instead of limestone for cement production, potentially cutting CO2 emissions by 80%
Researchers are exploring the use of silicate rocks like basalt as an alternative to limestone to lower the energy requirements and carbon footprint of cement production.

"Developers working for Google have significantly misstated how much carbon two proposed AI datacentres will contribute to the UK’s total emissions in planning documents reviewed by the Guardian.
The tech company wants to build two huge datacentres – one 52-hectare (130 acre) project in Thurrock and another at an airfield in North Weald, both in Essex. To do so, developers are required to submit planning documents calculating how much carbon these projects will emit as a proportion of the UK’s total carbon footprint.
In both cases, they appear to have compared one year of the proposed datacentre’s emissions with the UK’s entire five-year carbon budget, understating the significance of their emissions by a factor of five, according to experts at the tech justice nonprofit Foxglove.
Greystoke, a company planning to build another datacentre in north Lincolnshire, one of the largest in the UK, also appears to have misstated the emissions of its project in the same way. Taken together, the three developments will account for more than 1% of the UK’s carbon budget in 2033. This is the equivalent to the emissions of a mid-sized city such as Bristol."

Crikey | Why big tech has always been obsessed with hiding its shame by Ketan Joshi
AI generated summary, Read the full article for complete information.
The article argues that big‑tech companies routinely obscure the true scale of their environmental impact, pointing to examples such as Amazon’s claim of 100 % renewable power while fighting mandatory emissions reporting, and using Canberra Data Centres (CDC) as a case study: its founder Greg Boorer boasts that Australia can build world‑class data centres and still meet net‑zero targets by tapping “substantial unused capacity” in the power system and claims CDC is already net‑zero, despite the broader reality that the industry is imposing massive new energy demand on suburban fringes and relying on vague promises of future technological fixes to downplay the issue.

"The UK government vastly underestimated the climate impact of artificial intelligence, it has emerged, after officials raised their estimate of carbon emissions from AI by a factor of more than 100.
According to new data quietly published this week, energy use by AI datacentres in the UK could cause the emission of up to 123m tonnes of carbon dioxide (CO₂) – about as much as generated by 2.7 million people – over the next 10 years.
That latest figure replaces a previous estimate – since deleted – that claimed emissions would reach a maximum of 0.142m tonnes of CO₂ in a single year.
There is increasing alarm at the carbon impact of AI and with calls to reduce global emissions to mitigate the climate emergency becoming increasingly urgent.
Patrick Galey, the head of investigations for the Global Witness climate campaign, said: “We have a handful of years until our carbon budget is exhausted."
