    It already exist and already in use.

    There is specialized plastids that can use solar energy to turn co2 into a high resistant carbon based composite material that can be used to replace steel and concrete in construction. This composite is also an nicer and more durable alternative to all kind of plastics.

    The process is called photosynthesis and the material is commonly known as “wood”.
