Carbon Coastlines

ECO₂  confronts the challenge of rising sea levels and coastal erosion—byproducts of climate change driven by carbon emissions—with a speculative yet pragmatic approach. It imagines a future where carbon sequestration technology not only mitigates these emissions but transforms them into physical "bricks." These bricks are then utilized to reinforce and rebuild disappearing islands, setting the stage for new ecosystems to flourish.

Emphasizing a balance between urgency and innovation, the project explores this scenario as a form of constructive imagination rather than a definitive solution. It delves into the potential of "carbon-synthesis" devices, inspired by biomimicry, to foster a symbiotic relationship between technological advancement and natural adaptation. This vision advocates for a reimagined interaction with our planet, highlighting both the disturbing realities of climate change and the promising possibilities of human ingenuity.
