Today, we're looking at one of the world's largest sources of emissions - cement. How do we make cement, and why are emissions so intense? Hint: this time it's not fossil fuels. To find out, we'll look at how the world's second largest cement manufacturer, Holcim, is reducing the embodied emissions of their product. But then we'll go further. We'll talk to Zarina Bazoeva and Matt Kennedy-Good, the founders of Neocrete, a company poised to replace cement and eliminate emissions altogether.

But first, we have a party to attend. Let's go!
