For the first time, cement degradation through time was considered in terms of CO2 absorption by researchers of the Laboratory for climate and environmental sciences (LSCE, Gif-sur-Yvette France, CEA/ CNRS/ UVSQ). This carbon sink, which is growing rapidely has to be taken onto account.
LSCE researchers have also conducted data analyses resulting in a more precise estimate of the exact role of the atmospheric CO2 regulation by soils and vegetation, with a strong reduction of uncertainties.
