Items on table including samples of seaweed in petri dishes and blocks of concrete.
A researcher presses cement into one of three metal molds. Three petri dishes containing seaweed samples sit on the table next to the molds.
A researcher in safety glasses observes a small cement cube sandwiched between two metal discs in an industrial-looking machine.
Cement is the 2nd most-used material on Earth after water and is one of the biggest contributors to greenhouse gas emissions.
