The EcoSmart™ Partnership
|
|
This innovative government-industry partnership was assembled to
facilitate the reduction of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions associated with
the production of Portland Cement for use in concrete
construction. The continuing focus is on enabling the building
industry to innovate and adopt new technologies that will reduce
GHG emissions in a manner that is ecologically and
economically smart.
The EcoSmart™ Partnershipcontinues
striving to make EcoSmart concrete an industry standard through
demonstration projects and applied research. GLOBE was the project
manager responsible for the first phase of this launching
partnership, working with Environment Canada, the
Greater
Vancouver Regional District, Industry
Canada, cement and concrete industry representatives,
and members of the engineering and architectural community.
