How addressing embodied carbon can strengthen U.S. manufacturing with Anish Tilak

Buildings contribute nearly 40% of global carbon emissions, with a significant share coming from embodied carbon—the hidden emissions in the materials we use to build. In this episode, Kate Gasparro sits down with Anish Tilak (https://rmi.org/people/anish-tilak/) , a leader in RMI (https://rmi.org/) ’s Carbon-Free Buildings program, to explore how Buy Clean (https://www.gsa.gov/real-estate/gsa-p...) and Buy America (https://www.commerce.gov/oam/build-am...) policies are shaping the future of sustainable construction. They discuss the latest innovations in low-carbon concrete and cleaner steel production and how transforming the materials sector can strengthen the U.S. economy and drive job creation. With a shifting political landscape, what’s next for embodied carbon reduction? And how can cities, developers, and policymakers collaborate to build more sustainable cities and economies?
