For at least 6,000 years, prior to the Industrial Revolution which was around 1760; the Earth’s natural processes operated in a state of
#balance that was, in effect, a natural "
#NetZero" carbon cycle.
During this period, the amount of carbon dioxide entering the atmosphere through natural processes - such as respiration, decomposition, and volcanic activity - was roughly equal to the amount being removed by natural sinks, such as photosynthesis and ocean absorption.
Currently, the
#Earth is NOT "
#NetZero" by nature.
How do you reset the Earth to its original settings?
The planet is experiencing rapid warming due to human-caused greenhouse gas emissions, which exceed the natural rate of carbon absorption.
#NetZero is a GOAL requiring
#human action.
The
#construction industry is a major disruptor of Earth's Net Zero goals, with the built environment (construction and operations) responsible for approximately 37% to 40% of global, energy-related
emissions.
The industry produces up to 3 billion tonnes of construction and demolition (C&D) waste annually, much of which is not recycled, leading to further methane emissions in landfills.
A net-zero energy building is a highly energy-efficient structure by combining passive design (insulation, natural lighting) with active strategies (solar panels, heat pumps), these buildings drastically reduce energy demand and carbon emissions.
#Fortune100 and
#Fortune500 companies care significantly about
#NetZeroBuildings, treating them as a critical component of their overall
#CorporateSustainability,
#RiskManagement, and
#Decarbonization strategies.
The global market for exterior wall systems (including curtain walls, cladding, EIFS) is experiencing a CAGR of roughly 7-8%, projected to exceed USD 312 billion by 2032.
The shift toward "dry construction" (
#drywall) over "wet construction" (brick/plaster) is driving up the square footage of prefabricated wall systems.
Unified Intelligence has launched
#CIRCATO Systems to claim our own market share in this exciting market.
Inspired by nature; engineered for tomorrow, the exterior walls built by CIRCATO insulates the external temperature (heat or cold) from the interior of the building. This reduces the cost of energy in
#HVAC by over FIFTY PERCENT.
They are 40% lighter than the conventional exterior wall systems thus reducing the load burden on the structural framework.
It has a superior fire rating of 90/150 minutes.
CIRCATO dry walls can have a very W-I-D-E range surface finish enabling Architects to offer a wide range of finishing and shapes (including curved).
The manufacturing technology by which these wall modules are made is
#Thermofusion. That makes them extremely sturdy, unbreakable and rugged.
The material used is single use plastic waste (
#MLP). CIRCATO will consume millions of tonnes of this to produce extremely durable exterior walls to help construct
#NetZeroBuildings.
