This year’s award ceremony is being be held online in accordance with local shelter-in-place guidelines due to COVID-19.
Central Concrete in San Jose demonstrated significant leadership in reducing air pollutants to win the honor. The company designed sustainable, low-carbon-footprint concrete products achieved by reducing the amount of cement used and by substituting cement replacement materials. Since 2011, they have replaced 1.1 million tons of cement with substitute materials, resulting in emission reductions of approximately 1 million tons of carbon dioxide from cement production.
The Spare the Air Leadership Award winner will be celebrated alongside other environmental leaders from across Bay Area during the online ceremony. Registration is free, on Acterra's website.
