Sequestering Carbon in the Driverless City Project

Ron Henderson, in collaboration with Alexis Arias, presented STRATEGIES FOR INCREASING CARBON CAPTURE IN THE URBAN FOREST: THE DRIVERLESS CITY PROJECT 提升城市森林碳捕获策略：无人驾驶城市项目, at the International Symposium on Landscape Architecture (ISLA 2021). The Symposium, Carbon Peak and Carbon Neutrality: Climate Positive Design in Landscape Architecture, was hosted by Huazhong Agricultural University.

IN THE DRIVERLESS CITY, WHAT IF … ?

… there is more space on the streets for environmental services, including: water infiltration, remediation of urban heat island affect, increase of urban tree canopy biomass, and opportunities to sequester carbon?
