Cement is seldom used on its own, but rather to bind sand and gravel together. Cement mixed with fine aggregate produces mortar for masonry, or with sand and gravel, produces concrete.
The oil & gas, mining, transportation and food & beverage industries rank highest in risk exposures in terms of managing the Earth’s natural resources or “natural capital,” according to Allianz Global Corporate & Specialty’s (AGCS) latest report, “Measuring And Managing Environmental Exposure: A Business Sector Analysis of Natural Capital Risk.” AGCS placed these industries in the “danger zone,” meaning their risks are, on average, greater than the mitigation options currently employed.
