Imagine
earthships …
Soon we are going to leave the
parental nest and we would like to have our own house. However in these times
of crisis and environmental changes, generally we haven’t enough money to build
or buy a house, and we have to take the ecological questions in account.
Nevertheless since the early
seventies, the earthship, an excellent type of sustainable building was
designed by an American architect Michael Reynolds. This “arc of Noah” exists
in harmony with its environment and is
primarily made of tires and other types of discarded materials, as you can see
on the photo.
Living
in an earthship made of recycled materials, without using fossil fuels, catching water from the sky, providing
our own electricity with a wind power system etcetera means taking the
responsibility for what happens beyond the reach of our fingertips.
To sum up, building an earthship is cost effective,
inexpensive, ecological and future proof!
