The loss of the earth’s natural capacity to absorb carbon from the atmosphere due to rampant deforestation is an existential threat to humanity. Drawing inspiration from skyscrapers and rollercoasters, Carbon Copy envisions a wooden structure—part architecture, part landform—seeded with trees to boost the carbon storing capacity of the world’s remaining forests.
A tree-supporting modular grid leaves the ground open for continued plant growth, animal migration, and human passage as it adjusts to topographic obstructions such as hills and rivers. Each tree is planted in a high tensile fabric pouch secured to the timber frame. The system can be replicated in forested areas virtually without limit. If built at sufficient scale, it will help reverse global deforestation’s harmful effects and restore equilibrium to the planet.
