What do the lockdown and climate goals have in common?

Written by Peter Edwards Editor, Global Cement Magazine
18 May 2020

As one of the 4.5 billion people on earth currently under some form of coronavirus-related lockdown, I have seen a lot of my local area recently. This has mainly been while walking / scooting with my wife and two small children. During a recent jaunt, we noticed how clear the birdsong was on our road. This was due to three factors: More birds in early summer, virtually zero traffic noise and the fact that we ourselves were not racing from A to B in the car.
