ifeu-Studie: Nachwachsende Rohstoffe gezielter einsetzen

sdg21-Redaktion — Sun, 26 Feb 2023 13:44:06 +0000

The bioeconomy can be a central building block for the transformation of our largely coal, oil and gas-based economy. However, renewable raw materials and synthetic carbon compounds are scarce and expensive. They should be used in areas such as the chemical industry - not as energy sources. For the shift from a fossil-based economy to a bioeconomy to succeed, fossil carbon must also become more expensive. The ifeu now presents the results of four trend-setting studies.

The publication, which appeared in book form, deals with the use of the building materials wood and clay in the construction of commercially used buildings.

Bündnis für mehr Klimaschutz im Bausektor: Bundesregierung muss Einsparpotenziale beim Bauen und Entsorgen angehen

sdg21-Redaktion — Thu, 10 Dec 2020 09:00:45 +0000

A broad alliance of actors from civil society, science, industry and practice is calling on the German government to promote the climate-friendly construction, maintenance and demolition of buildings. Up to now, only the use phase of buildings has been taken into account in state subsidies for buildings and in the Building Energy Act. There is a complete lack of specifications and consideration of the climate impact of building materials and the construction and disposal of buildings - despite the fact that the construction sector, with its upstream and downstream processes, contributes around 8 percent to German greenhouse gas emissions.
