The environmental costs of construction begin long before a shovel breaks ground, rooted deep within the supply chain that extracts and manufactures building components. This upstream impact is captured by embodied energy, the total energy consumed in a materials life cycle, including harvesting, mining, manufacturing, and transport.
The construction industry's impact on the environment is wide-ranging, touching everything from the air we breathe to the water we drink. It's not just about the big cranes and noisy demolition; it's a complex web of resource extraction, energy consumption, and waste generation.
