Climate Accountability Institute (CAI) has quantified emissions of carbon dioxide attributable to the
cement company Holcim Ltd., the world’s second largest by revenue, for the period from 1950 to
the present. Our analysis covers emissions for its entire supply chain from quarrying (such as
calcite [limestone] and aggregates) to finished product transportation. The boundary definition
includes emissions from cement production (calcining emissions, fuel combustion, other scope
sources, scope [chiefly purchased electricity], and indirect scope).
