Dig a hole. Put a climate change believer in the bottom. Fill the hole with concrete and beer bottles. Problem solved.

I think we should go back to building and powering everything with wood.

So cancel all everything and then they’ll be happy?

Communists LOVE concrete! So another issue where we’ve come full circle I guess. Commies and concrete, except for commies and carbon now conflicting.

Concrete will be around as long as cheap illegal labor is available to work it.

Hopefully one day we will replace concrete buildings with buildings made from plastic recycled from the Pacific trash island. /s

Hard to beat concrete for strength/durability/cost - I once hear an old guy who had been in the business for over 50 years remark that concrete aged and got stronger for the 1st hundred years and then slowly deteriorated for the next hundred years...I have no idea if that’s true but have had a hell of a time busting up some 25 year old concrete slabs...even w/o rebar or fibers holding them together.

More climate radicalism.

The “Concrete Choreography” installation at Riom, Switzerland, presented the first robotically 3D printed concrete stage, consisting of columns fabricated without formwork. The hollow concrete structures are printed to allow materials to be strategically used, allowing for a more sustainable approach to concrete architecture.

“Sustainable” — there is that ridiculous word again. The idiot author uses it to describe a frivolous artwork installation. If these leftist kooks were truly concerned about “sustainability” they wouldn’t build such useless things in the first place. What’s the point of having sustainable frivolities?

Concrete has been used for 6,000 years without leftist nut jobs worrying about “sustainability.” It sustains itself just fine without invoking the Woke BS Du Jour.

With all the evidence about CO2 out there for ages now, what’s the big deal? It is not a pollutant in any way, shape, or form at normal atmospheric levels. It is plant food.

Remarkably, the article does not mention that concrete slowly reabsorbs carbon dioxide as it ages.
