Abstract
Conventional thermal insulation materials in buildings consume huge amount of embodied energy. Nonetheless, these materials cause many harms whether indoors or outdoors; hence, increase carbon emissions that resulted in climate change. Buildings are accounted for around 40 per cent of the total consumption of energy. The research aims at utilization of agricultural wastes, as natural thermal insulation materials, which reflects the concept of circular economy, to lessen the harmful carbon dioxide emissions. This research is concerned with realizing the importance of thermal insulation materials in different climates, and reviewing their development worldwide, as well as the comparison between conventional and non-conventional thermal insulation materials. The research methodology depends on theoretical and applied studies through simulation to assess the application of agricultural residues inresidential buildings; which reached a conclusion that these residues provide good thermal insulation and lessen carbon emissions and mitigate climate change
