🌿 We have a duty to leave nature it in a better state than when we found it and ensure biodiversity gain. 🌳 Restoration may involve returning the land to its initial use with no sign that it had ever been quarried. 🦅 It often also provides an opportunity to create new nature reserves for biodiversity to thrive and even provide leisure facilities for the community. 🔗 Find out how, together with our people, Holcim is helping biodiversity thrive at our quarry sites, while bringing more nature into cities: https://lnkd.in/eyrECM-s #BuildingProgress #Nature #Restoration #SustainableConstruction #Biodiversity

🤝 Our partnership with neustark is expanding to new markets, as we work with the Swiss startup to bring their game-changing CO2 mineralization technology to France! 🌳 Part of the Holcim MAQER Ventures portfolio, neustark has developed a technology that permanently binds CO2 in recycled concrete. 👷♀️ A new production line for crushing and screening demolition concrete is being installed in Gennevilliers, where this technology will be deployed. 🏛️ Once re-carbonated, the recycled aggregate, which retains all its mechanical properties, will be used to make sustainable building solutions. 🔗 Read more about our partnership with neustark here: https://lnkd.in/eCw74X2T #BuildingProgress #Innovation #CircularConstruction

🌊 "We should call it Planet Ocean, not Planet Earth." 🔬 Richard Brisius, Race Chairman of The Ocean Race, emphasizes the importance of collecting scientific data while sailing around the globe. ⛵ Right now, our Team Holcim-PRB skipper Nicolas Lunven is racing in the Vendée Globe with an Ocean Pack onboard as part of the #GOCIRCULAR campaign, gathering crucial samples on temperature, salinity, oxygen, and CO2 in some of the most remote areas of our planet. In collaboration with The Ocean Race, we're sharing this data with scientific institutions to help monitor the health of our oceans. 🔗 Last year, we collected microplastic samples during The Ocean Race - here are the results: https://lnkd.in/diZWD-qp #GOCIRCULARbyHolcim #BuildingProgress #Sustainability #OceanScience #OceanRace #MarineResearch
