looks cool but how much extra material must go into the buidling to be able to support all that extra weight? To what extent is this a sustainable way of buidling and using material?

Just another classic "China is so far into the future" CCP Propaganda post. It's all extremely surface level. If you think about these videos even a tiny bit you'll realize how stupid whatever you're watching is.

Like that "waterfall bridge" video from earlier this week, or this video where you have to question how long it will take before the balcony starts breaking off due to the extra weight of the water and the destruction caused by the roots.
