He's also been SO FAR AHEAD of his time. His vision is beginning to be spread and shared and linked with other practical visionaries, like Malcolm Wells and Gernot Minke in Germany. Not everybody can visualize. They need to walk through, feel the energy of a place, listen to the quiet without machine hums, smell the fresh air of the interior, feel the pervasive comfortable temperature, watch the play of light and shadow on the inside of the house. Even then, many forget their initial impressions and either need to re-experience the place or brush it aside as misremembered or illusory. Many people can experience "home" only as the home in which they grew up, or something as close to that as possible. What a tenacious, focussed, enduring spirit drives this man. May his body be as enduring.

If you resettle every US citizen with an earthship like these, how much space would they use up? Seeing how these folks seem to like their privacy and have built with quite some room inbetween them. 332 million citizens, how many homes would you expect them to have ? Would there be enough old tires?

And bill gates wants to cover the sun!

That sounds exactly like what Mr Renyolds would do. You want to learn, roll up your sleeves.

Well people are nothing more that (extrament)?, from the body that was ejected. Not sure how one spells extrament, but I assume Im close.

@@10laws2liveby There's a C in there somewhere but I don't know where and I'm too afraid to guess.

It’s “Excrement “

😂😂

And it’s not new, it was around in the 60-70s and it was around before then. People always had rent or mortgage they had to pay. A lot of people went to Canada to get away from Vietnam. It was a hard life, and people got hurt, and as more and more people. If you want to live in and breathing They didn’t want to strike him down, it’s just you have to have rules so people don’t get injured or got poisoned say breathing all them tires, or all that mud falling on you when it collapsed. I mean out there is the place to build it, it’s dry out there, if you put an earth ship on the east coast like my back yard you’d have that grows up 3-4’ because of all the rain. What I love is the people who are talking about out new, - nothing. You just need to go where there is land you can get ownership of and make sure you build as it’s required. Once it’s built it’s done and grandfathered.

So what they are still missing is a sustainable way of transport. How do people and materials from and to the earth ship in a sustainable way? Whey look too remote to do everything with a bicycle.

They should make people with lawn-sprinklers install a device to recycle / redirect their bathwater to it and not use valuable freshwater. Maybe you could invent one?

@@anthonytempleton2135 A few year back we had a drought and hosepipe use was banned, no car washing either. I used to use bath water to water my vegetables. I installed a pipe between the bath and the garden. You just need a small pump to start get the water flowing and then syphoning and gravity does the rest. To start with I simply sucked the bath water up the pipe it is easy to know when it is flowing because air is ejected, so then you stop sucking. I never got a mouthful of bath water, but in the end installed a small pump instead.

I never even thought water can be used 4 different times. This place is very inspiring. It just shows great care for the Earth and what people can do when they set their minds to it.

I don't understand why we don't use reclaimed water or grey water as some call it. Isn't it kind of silly we flush toilets with water clean enough to drink?

@@commenter9967 I would quite like to set up my toilet to use rain water most of the time. However it would need quite a large storage tank. I would be quite interested in the capacity they have for their Earthships. However, in general I see their Earthships as a terrible blight on the landscape.

Sounded like he's using the opportunity of having cancer to successfully take his health to the next level. Hope he continues to do so!

This anecdote/story is so heart warming. Goes to show what a kind man Mike is n how even back then was so passionate about his vision.

Building your house out of beer cans isn't very logical. Growing your own food, raising chickens, collecting rain water and arguably even roof solar however are all pros and no cons with comparatively minimum effort however is. I don't think most people will be happy to grow food from poop or using recycled water for absolutely everything, but learning gardening basics and installing rain water tanks are all minimum effort advantages that are hard to argue with.

I lost it when I heard that but in a profound kinda way 🤭

A great description of bouncing back after a bad relationship as well...

In ancient times and even some countries around the world they do uses shit as fertilizer cow . goat and human for the food we import all the time

Remember, Human shit and pigshit is NOT to be used for crops that grow underground, only for those whose where the harvest is aboveground. Underground crops like potatoes and carrots you use horse,donkey, cow, sheep or goat-manure only! This is basically because of what parasites and diseases the animals have that are likely to pass through crops into our food. You can also always use dried poultry-crap to add aboveground the same way as you add industrial fertiliser, just remember to use a facemask, because you do not want to breathe in powdered chicken-crap and get salmonella or some other bug! Urin is usually safe to use always, as long as you dilute it before spreading, but human urin WILL bring medicine-leftovers with it into the crops, so use with care. Happy growing!

She's talking about doing her part to conserve her own environment by doing her part to protect it!!! Good Grief!!!

I am genuinely curious as to your opinion about the safety of these structures. I think it's a novel idea but to me it seems like a possibly dangerous situation building a home without regulations and from materials of questionable origins, especially building something with the longevity of a home and possibly introducing loadbearing structures into 3 walls over decades. So many other concerns such as fire safety and natural disaster resistance etc. I am not a home builder but it would seem like the type of protections that regulations 'guarantee' homeowners that you don't have with an earth ship in it's current implementation. Feel free to correct me if I am wrong!

Better to have regs go to far than not far enough. Always difficult to find the perfect balance but ask those millions in Haiti who have all their buildings crumble with every quake

They have gone too far for good reasons. That is what the dictators in society want, and they have made us follow them, not necessarily our own hearts and minds. In reality, those good reasons are really bad ones, but most are oblivious to the increasing control they are conforming to.

@@sejinjang4541 let’s put it this way, there are large volume builders that pop up thousands of houses a year that “meet code” that I wouldn’t live in if I was paid to do so. I have stood in homes that were less than 2 years old that were structurally failing and deemed uninhabitable by the same municipality that certified them code compliant just 2 years earlier. I have seen many structures built 200 years ago in my state (far before there were ever codes) that are still standing and being lived in.

@@asmodiusjones9563 You hit on many great points and I couldn't agree with you more. Homes built these days are not much different than 70-80 years ago, in terms of typical layout and essentilal features. Of course there have been many innovations and the building industry has evolved tremendously - the fundementals are still the same. 2 car garage full of everything but cars, walk into kitchen through laundry, simple cookie cutter split floorplans, 3 bedrooms, 2.5 baths, little patio out back for the grill. That is okay for most, it is essentially the "American Way." I can think of at least 100 ways to improve on how houses are built, producing more ammenities and for less up front expenses. As mentioned, things are labor intensive and it can be costly to blaze trails with architects, engineers, inspectors, other compliance agents all needing fees and assessments - especially for unique changes. Doing anything creative on a massive scale also requires enormous funding, which needs to be recaptured in return on investment or there is no chance big builders will sacrifice even one little nickel of profit. People with assets build custom homes and put them on unique properties, waterfront, for example - or on a mountainside. These can become incredible structures that DO factor in sustainability and green principles with many unique spaces and features. They are essentially just bigger homes with fancier finishes and fixtures - not usually caring for a second about water, sewer, power sources or how the structure can retain or repel heat or cold as needed. I feel that we have only scratched the surface of what is truly possible. With some creativity and courage, many are challenging the basic assumptions about building structures. It is not just off grid living being romanticized these days - the tiny house trend and popularity of RV and bus renovations along with the shipping container building boom - have inspired people to think outside of the box about how they work and live. Now, we need city planners and lawmakers to create more flexibility in managing growth. For that to be possible, people need to ask for it and demand progress. Builders are going to build what people want or are willing to buy. If you build it, they will come? Perhaps. For this to be something that becomes the next thing that everyone must have - it needs to be embraced on a broad level - not just emerging in eclectic communities. Thanks for the inspiration. ;) Peace.

It seems like we need a permit to do just about anything anymore. Permits and zones are all about taxes.

To be fair, those laws exist for a reason, to protect people buying homes. Without standards for building homes were built very poorly and fell apart. So just jumping to the government shouldn't regulate building a house is kind of shortsided thinking. I love what he is doing, but it should be done responsibly as he has, but if it catches on, you still need standards that others have to follow.

how will you be "off the grid" when you rely on the very grid to provide you with literally EVERYTHING you need to build these places? wood, metal, electronics, septic tanks, solar panels, cans, rubber tires just to name a few

@@TiGGowich being ‘off the grid’ is not the selling point in my mind. It’s using materials that would otherwise be trash and eco friendly means to provide electricity as well as the use of water being quite efficient. so ask someone else I guess

I totally agree. I didn't know this community existed.

​@@angiebear8727 Why try to build houses out of materials that would otherwise be trash? Why not actually work towards reusable materials? We are, we have found ways to recycle and reuse tires... it just needs implementation. Eco friendly means of providing electricity? Not really... Solar panels are EXTREMELY eco UNFRIENDLY in terms of setting up. They will require regular maintenance, and will also degrade in performance over time. It is FAR more eco unfriendly than for example wind power, but on the other hand more consistent. Solar panels and wind power are also TERRIBLE as main sources of power, since some people will literally die without power. Efficient use of water? We actually do quite efficient use of water already. Water reclamation from sewage is a big thing, and can give tons of water, so I don't really see what is that much more interesting about what they do? It is also a multi-tiered system, so you will have to bath, you'll have to water plants, etc... Otherwise it'd just be a two-tier system, and frankly most people wash themselves far more than they cook or water plants, so in general it isn't even amazing innovation for society. Also they are literally using cans, which are AMAZINGLY recyclable, so they are taking a recyclable material out of circulation. Not saying this community isn't interesting, but it certainly isn't eco friendly in terms of electricity, and the water use is efficient for this specific style of living, and does NOT scale.

@@TiGGowich You don't know what "off the grid means." The "grid" isn't the market place of buying and selling. It's the literal electric grid, and branched out to include water, sewer, and the like. It means you can be alone, unconnected to any government or community utilities.

Close, but not quite. Local governments are almost entirely captured by real estate development interests. Developers control policy even down to the neighborhood level, especially in policing. The government should provide everything to everyone, and we can use self-sufficiency to make that more economically feasible.

@@Isoroku25 I don't see any reason it can't be both. :)

Not really so. It's a developmental process. I'm putting up a solar farm on my property ... with subsidies from the government. When a handful of people try to force their views on the majority it normally becomes problematic.

@@Isoroku25 You’re wrong, the government shouldn’t provide everything because then those receiving the services or goods have to pay for taxes. I understand municipal roads, mail etc but the rest are an overkill if they’re not optional. Like running water, sewer and electricity. Human beings have been self sufficient for decades till they started having cities and governments most of which have taken advantage of that and taxing citizens to death for basic services. If a home doesn’t have electricity or running water in many places then the local government condemns it and claims that it’s uninhabitable as a residence. Which is bs! People can still live there and get electricity from solar/wind. A few exceptions are off the grid places like rural Alaska where you have more freedom on your land to do whatever you want without much interference.

I think this is something everyone, regardless of political leaning, left right or center, could get behind. It reduces resources used, it saves money, it recycles waste, it allows for more creative expression, and it requires less government. There's literally something for everyone.

Refreshing, ain't it?

It's also called downcycling. You reuse bottles, but they are downgraded to a building material. In Europe we collect glass bottles, melt them and create new bottles out of them. Same with plastic bottles. But some plastic can not be selected pure enough to reuse it, so that is also downcycled for building streets and houses. As garbage dumps are illegal here, companies have to find ways, how to recycle things. But there are some things left, that can not be recycled, so they are burned to use it as energy source. It's amazing how independent these houses are. And the deserty area is a very challenging surrounding for that. But you don't have to pick the whole model. Putting solar panels on the roof to be less dependent on the grid is a very easy first step. Outside this deserts, water isn't as much of an issue. There are other very good isolation materials available, too. So there are net energy negative houses build in Europe, that aren't earthships. These houses produce more energy as they need. They can also be build in cities, so you don't need a car, but walk to buy groceries and use the subway to work. Cars aren't sustainable at all.

We will get there. It is our destiny.

Yesss i agree 👍

There are a few earth ships across the country . There’s air B and B warships in Arizona . Perhaps you should book a stay . They’re many around the world .

… across the world, I would add :-)

Seeing as most places require you to be connected, by law, there Shouldn't be any fees merely for "connection" as I understand it. Though how much did the solar panels cost? Aren't those things extremely expensive?

@@bobsaturday4273 It depends on where you live, but my parents spent like $50k having all the panels installed, having the inspections & all that stuff necessary to sell your power back to the power co. I would say in our experience it probably wasn't feasible for the average family, but for an upscale home for people who care about the environment, it's worth it
