Concrete: Making the Building Blocks of Society Sustainable

Positives

• The chemistry involved with producing concrete is explained using visuals of the molecular structures.
• The video includes a variety of promising solutions that address emissions from different parts of the cement production process.

Additional Prerequisites

• An ad may play at the beginning of the video.
  

Differentiation

• This resource could be a hook for chemistry classes when learning about chemical reactions.
• You could have students work in groups to research the different solutions and present their findings to the class.
• You could pair students of differing strengths and have them work through the chemical equation, identifying the reactants (substrates) and products.
