They've already invented carbon negative concrete. They just don't use it due to cost. Is this process going to be cheaper than traditional concrete/steel? Probably not, so it will not be used as well unless we start mandating it.

No, it's not used because it's BS greenwashing, has durability issues, and is expensive (because of transport, which also adds carbon)
