CleanStart Perspectives Looks at Sustainability and Concrete
Event Information
About this event
After water, concrete is the second most widely used substance in the world and small changes in concrete production can have a drastic impact on everyday life. Concrete is one of the largest contributors to Greenhouse gas emissions but it doesn't have to be that way.
Join us as we chat with Sac State professor Jose Garcia to learn the details about how concreate contributes to Greenhouse gas and how that impact can be reduced.
Jose E. Garcia, Ph.D. is a civil engineering professor in the College of Engineering and Computer Science at Sacramento State. His research focuses on identifying new ways to produce concrete that are more environmentally friendly, durable, and resilient.
CleanStart Perspectives are short online conversations to connect the greater Sacramento clean tech entrepreneurship community and share insights, experiences, and outlooks. Join us as we welcome our featured guests to share their perspective on what entrepreneurs and innovators can do to thrive and grow.
Register and we'll send you the Zoom login information prior to the meeting time.
CleanStart Perspectives are recorded through Zoom.
