“Rio Tinto, the world’s largest mining house, was the first to break ranks, saying earlier in the year that the lack of global action was no excuse for Australia not pushing ahead with its own emission trading scheme.”

Over 300,000 highly polluting brick kilns exist worldwide in developing countries emitting over 504 million tonnes of CO2 per year.
Habla Kilns technology provides a low emission burning process for clay bricks which has been tested and approved by the United Nations Industrial Development Organization International Labour Office (UNIDO).
Since its invention over 150 Habla Kilns have been built in England, Germany and America.
The introduction of this technology into developing countries would reduce the appalling pollution generated by the brick industry to the equivalent emission standards accepted by the developed world. |
