Along with fellow Net Zero Accelerator host countries Egypt, India and Thailand, Colombia brings the total coverage of the initiative to 10% of global cement capacity.

GCCA chief executive officer Thomas Guillot said “The urgency of addressing climate change becomes clearer every day. Last year, our industry made a breakthrough Net Zero global commitment to reduce our carbon footprint, and we are now driving action in Latin America to make real change in one of the regions predicted to use the most concrete and cement in the coming decades. Our Roadmap Accelerator programme, previewed today by our members and affiliate (FICEM) at Latin America and the Caribbean Climate Week, highlights the tailored policies and tools we will use to ensure that Net Zero concrete and cement is achieved by 2050.”
