    Well, they’re using renewable energy to power it. The limestone looks like it’s just constantly recycled, so it would be just the initial transport there. Their output is tanks of compressed carbon dioxide which is sent to a concrete maker, so it really depends on how far away the concrete maker is. There’s a thing called industrial symbiosis, where manufacturers co-locate so that one factory’s waste easily becomes the factory next door’s input.
