NRMCA Senior Vice President, Local Paving, Phil Kresge recently presented at this year’s MdQI Conference in Baltimore. His presentation, Embodied Carbon of Materials and Whole Building Life Cycle, examined the embodied carbon associated with the manufacture of concrete and the importance of considering operational and use phase emissions attributed to concrete pavement throughout its service life. Kresge also described the cement and concrete industry’s efforts to reduce concrete carbon footprint, including the Portland Cement Association’s (PCA) Roadmap to Carbon Neutrality and NRMCA’s role in developing Environmental Products Declarations (EPD’s) for concrete.
Kresge’s participation was facilitated by Maryland Ready Mixed Concrete Association (MRMCA) Executive Director Tom Evans. The program elicited several questions and comments from attendees during the Q&A portion of the session as well as from individuals who stopped by the MRMCA’s tabletop exhibit.
