Joint Initiative for Carbon Reduction in the Global Building Materials Industry Released
To Colleagues Across the Global Building Materials Industry,
As a critical pillar of the global economy, the building materials industry plays a vital role in advancing infrastructure development and urbanization. At the same time, our industry is also one of the major sources of global carbon emissions. Accelerating the low-carbon transition is no longer optional—it is imperative. This is not only the pathway to sustainable industry development but also a necessary step in addressing climate change and fulfilling our shared social responsibility.
On the occasion of this forum, we hereby solemnly propose the following initiative to all colleagues in the global building materials industry:
1. Unite Around a Common Vision for a Low-Carbon Future
The value of building materials lies not only in enabling comfortable living environments, but also in shaping the long-term sustainability of our planet. We call on our global peers to join hands in embedding the concept of “low-carbon across the entire lifecycle” throughout the industry, transforming the low-carbon transition into an internal driver of industrial upgrading. Let us contribute the insights and strength of the building materials sector to global climate governance.
2. Embrace Three Core Principles to Guide Our Transformation
Drive green transformation through innovation.We call on enterprises and research institutions in the building materials sector to increase investment in low-carbon technology R&D, and to accelerate the adoption of advanced production technologies and processes that effectively reduce carbon emissions during manufacturing.
Foster a low-carbon ecosystem through collaboration.We propose promoting the formation of green partnerships across the entire value chain, making “low-carbon” a common language throughout the supply chain. Through joint efforts, we can advance the sector’s green and low-carbon development.
Promote low-carbon development through cooperation.We advocate for building multi-level, institutionalized international platforms for carbon reduction cooperation in the building materials industry. These platforms should foster ongoing exchange of concepts, methodologies, and technological pathways for decarbonization, while enabling the sharing of best practices and successful case studies. Enhanced communication and collaboration will help create an inclusive and open low-carbon development environment.
The low-carbon transition is a long-term and formidable task for the global building materials industry. We shall take firm action with unwavering determination. Let us actively contribute to the green transformation of our sector, protect our planet’s ecological environment, and work together toward a more sustainable, low-carbon, and brighter future for all.
