In response to the climate crisis, there is an urgent demand for environmentally sustainable construction materials. Our proposal aims to meet this need by exploring hemp waste as a viable alternative. Hemp is renowned for its low carbon footprint and ability to continuously sequester CO2 throughout its lifecycle, making it a promising material choice. Since its legalization in 2018, hemp has gained popularity among farmers; however, the issue of hemp waste management remains largely unaddressed. Classified as ‘hazardous,’ hemp waste is often disposed of through burning, exacerbating environmental concerns. Our solution involves harnessing this waste to address disposal challenges and expand existing living spaces.
