Robbie M. Andrew CICERO Center for International Climate Research, Oslo 0349, Norway Correspondence:Robbie M. Andrew (robbie.andrew@cicero.oslo.no) Published: 26 January 2018 Abstract.The global production of cement has grown very rapidly in recent years, and after fossil fuels andland-use change, it is the third-largest source of anthropogenic emissions of carbon dioxide.

Here we assemble a large variety of available datasets and prioritise official data and emission factors, including estimates submitted to the UNFCCC plus new estimates for China …
