New York Governor Kathy Hochul (D) announced this week that a $32 million grant from FHWA’s Low-Carbon Transportation Materials Grants program will help NYSDOT continue its work to reduce the “embodied carbon” footprint of construction materials. “Whether it’s droughts, wildfires or record-breaking snowstorms, New Yorkers are feeling the effects of climate change in their daily lives, and these low carbon grants are an important tool in our efforts to stop it,”Hochul stated.
As the news release explains, “Embodied carbon refers to the estimate of the greenhouse gas emissions that are produced during the stages of a building or infrastructure’s life cycle. Embodied carbon accounts for about one-third of the carbon emissions from the construction industry.” The New York grant is part of a $1.2 billion program distribution FHWA announced in November.
