mixture of rocks, sand, water and cement to bind it all together. but cement has a huge carbon footprint. one pound of cement releases one pound of co2 emissions, without cement, concrete doesn t hold up skyscrapers. but a company called carbon cure developed technology to reduce cement s carbon footprint by using co 2 in the concrete mixing process. this is what s different about the operation? this is the brains of it here. reporter: after capturing co2 off site, it is brought to companies like thomas concrete. it is directly injected as it is mixed which makes the concrete stronger. when the concrete hardens, otherwise harmful emissions are sequestered forever, before they even reach our atmosphere. this building behind us is all built using carbon cure concrete. that s right. 48,000 cubic yards.
surgery you re getting now forgotten hour and a half ago which was the came up pretty quick. little bit more than a foot of surge because we had to get off the aisle. we had places where we couldn t actually drive so it s being closed for three days. we tend to go back there around four. we didn t have any watch from the ocean mainly because we just put 700,000 cubic yards on the beach in february from the program that i suspect when all said and done will lose most of that. shepard: money well spent. without it, you d have had a worse problem. that s exactly right. shepard: what you telling locals? to stay tuned because this flooding thing that we have now is going to take a while to assess because it was in a lot

because a couple of years ago this hillside was on fire and the crews were filling up the helicopter buckets out of this lake which is now a dry lake bed, elizabeth lake. so this is one of the reasons why this is a powerful mudslide behind the houses, because, you know, the hillside burn didn t have any vegetation to hold on, and it has been four years, not enough rain to germinate any root structure to hold the hillsides in place. so they have that to contend with. and dump truck after dump truck has been coming up and down the road today, and they have 300,000 cubic yards of mud. they have the put it somewhere. right now, they are moving it awe of the roads and hoping to dig some of the the cars out. in other areas nearby here on highway 58 where you saw that massive pileup of cars and big rigs, well, those are still there, and they expect those will be there for some time. that is a cleanup project that could take days, and the good
