#Cement used in U.S. single-family homes can sequester enough carbon to account for ~40% of process emissions from the production of cement used to build them. Learn about our probabilistic #carbonuptake accounting framework in our recent webinar youtube.com/watch?v=DKJn1m…

Urban areas tend to suffer the most from heat waves like this week’s. Sustainability expert Hessam AzariJafari and local forester Lawrence Sobson joined @SHDetroit on Created Equal to discuss innovative ways for Detroit to build up climate resilience 🏖 buff.ly/3VBoKQW

The heat this week feels inescapable. But its worse in cities thanks to something called the 'Urban Heat Islands' effect. Hessam AzariJafari from @CSHub_MIT and Lawrence Sobson from @MichiganDNR join @SHDetroit for #CreatedEqual. #HeatIslands #TreeEquity

"#Concrete is perhaps the most commonly used building material in the world. With a bit of tweaking, it could help to power our homes too." Damian Stefaniuk and our carbon-cement supercapacitor research were featured in @BBC @BBCScienceNews bbc.com/future/article…

Regular maintenance of city roads & infrastructure offers good opportunities to choose cooling designs and materials. “[With] the billions we spend to maintain urban surfaces, we need to make sure we're adding climate considerations into those decisions.” ow.ly/l3ep50PyFMu
