Paving the Way to Climate Resilience: How Enhanced Weathering Pavers Turn Cities into Carbon Sinks

Paving the Way to Climate Resilience: How Enhanced Weathering Pavers Turn Cities into Carbon Sinks

As cities race to reduce emissions and build climate-resilient infrastructure, a quietly revolutionary idea is taking root beneath our feet: using enhanced weathering paver blocks...

Enhanced weathering pavers are built just like conventional concrete or asphalt blocks, with one key difference: they contain reactive minerals that absorb CO₂ over time. These minerals can be mixed into the concrete, applied as surface coatings, or used in permeable paving systems where rainwater can flow through and enhance weathering. Here’s how it works: Mineral Activation: Finely crushed olivine or basalt is integrated into the paver material. Atmospheric Contact: As rainwater and air pass over and through the pavers, the minerals react with CO₂. Permanent Storage: The CO₂ forms carbonates, safely locked into solid rock for millennia. No special equipment is needed. These blocks are manufactured, installed, and maintained just like conventional pavers—making this a truly plug-and-play solution for cities.
