I guess there's going to be a redox reaction, which causes carbon to be oxidized to carbon dioxide, whereas the copper oxide is reduced to copper.
2CuO + C --> 2Cu + CO2
The advantage is that you get pure copper, the disadvantage that you get gaseous carbon dioxide (which might "destroy" the environment)
