    like this building ideas! would do the same way! :-) )
    but never forget, enviromental protection YES!! climate protection NOOO!!
    I would build this type, because of saving much fiat money and stay closer to nature. but I don“t fear about co2. because co2 has no (ultraless) effects on climate.(gate)

    Hmmm they have been built in different sizes as well though. Maybe some are easier to build than others?

    2 months eh? Oh man I can only imagine the labour!!! To build one of these babies in 2 months? wow! That’s one way to get your exercise!

    I dont know about years just recently did an internship with these builders and they said they built an earthship from top to bottom in 2 months!! But Im sure if it only one or two people building it might take years

    Poor video quality. And was that a PVC pipe I saw being used for the garden? PCV (#3) is cancerous.

    Instead of tires, I wonder if you could use earthbags instead?

    Makes sense and I understand what you are saying. I have mainly seen this stuff on You Tube

    mostly consists of garbage, so at least that really cuts down on costs of materials. ive seen the documentary and its not so much a money cost, its just that it takes these guys YEARS OF LABOUR to build them.

  8. Achbar says:

    I like the idea of Earthships, but, how expensive are they? How much does it cost to build a home like this?

    Interesting video. It’s too bad that it breaks off so suddenly.
