Housing for the people... housing for the world. Genius in simplicity. Michael, you are truly a gift; not only to the people of today, but also to generations in the future, and to the environment.

This man is a hero.

I started mine 5 years ago, I'm happy as a clam. Still gotta fix the cistern leak and figure out solar but it's been fantastic learning. Found a banana tree for 12 bucks and it's huge already. Greetings from Montana!

Your commitment to making a difference is unparalleled. Namaste brother.

Washington State pirated our sailboat/ home last year. Depression and grief, yet I find my way back to you and Earthship. It may be time for me to find you. I have much to offer this world before they take me out. Thank you for giving human hope. A living vessel that truly supports us while living. Thank you and much Blissings on your journey.

Good to hear of the spreading. Best wishes with the cancer from another cancer survivor. Go, guy!

Thank you, Michael, for your courage, vision, creativity, and relentless commitment to transforming the way dwellings are built - you are changing the world! Uncountable numbers of us support you in this journey. Change is slow, but it will come.

The world's greatest architect is 78 and going strong! I think a map showing the general locations of existing earthships (with some way of contacting the owners) would be very useful. Seeing what works, lessons learned, etc in person would help accelerate this movement. Of course if someone doesn't want to be in the listing leave them off, but the more examples people can see and show to others the more the ideas will grow and be implemented. Stay well, Mr Reynolds!

Thank you for turning on comments admin! Now we can all show our 💚

Oh my God. 'You're Alive' was my first reaction to seeing your Rebelious face again!! Sorry. Lol I am Delighted to see your face again....and delighted to join you here for your Episode #1 Looking foreword to being on this journey with you! Blessings and Gratitude your way from the "Great White North" Alberta Prairies. 😉💖🙏

Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge. You are truly a gift to humanity Michael Reynolds and I feel fortunate to have learned and experienced on KZfaq your "amazing" earthships!

Thank you for all of your efforts for so many years!

Blessings to you Sir.

How about having a lease/rent-to-own option? Additionally, I’m really sorry to hear about your battle with cancer. I really appreciate your work and mission and drive. You’re truly impressive, and I thank you for all that you have done and continue to do.

Sitting here in West Africa...an earthship having been a dream for a long long time...looking good Mike...🙏🌟

Ppl will find the most simple way i agree and at some point a jerk will franchise it..loved the tour earlier this year my wife and I are excited to start ours..thank you and your staff for being different in thought to create the earthship..

Thank you very much for the inspiration. I have been learning from you already ten years love and healing to you man

Thank you so much for all you've suffered for the perpetuation of Earthships. I pray for you my brother; may you receive increased healing, health, and prosperity. I can't wait to live in my own Earthship one day. Peace to you from Alaska, ~Tim

Truly dangerous Michael ! :) Keep at it ! Thank you very much. Amazing work. Alvaro from Uruguay...

The refuge!

Love you Michael! I am going through stage 4 cancer and I have learned that for me to live a long life I must follow my passions... The root of all my passions is Earthships. I live for Earthships and your work Michael! Mad love from 🇨🇦 and Jane from the Online Earthship Course (2021)

yay i can comment now. wow the last version i can remember is the Encounter. i need to look into these newer ones. my favorite is still the Global model.

Awesome! Thank you for being you, Michael! Also, thanks to all of your family, friends, interns, employees and other Earthship enthusiasts! I love the efficiencies that y'all have brilliantly incorporated into the designs. Truly, collaboration and cooperation so much more effective than competition and proprietary practices. Keep up the good work! May you live long and continue to prosper. Check out Dr. Joe Dispenza for healing. He is my hero and now you are, as well. Peace, Love, Joy, and Blessings to ALL. Namasté ❤

Uma grande abertura de visão você e seus alunos tem proporcionado à todos, muito agradecida 🙏💖

Where are the plans for these magnificent buildings?

I love this ❤

Thank you. My skillion cottage designed is basically a 6/12 pitched skillion earth ship. Had to swap tires for well insulated cmu block with masonry veneer north wall. Not doing a berm because of frost depths of 6 feet and 48*F ground temp. So spending the money for mineral wool and vermiculite for block cores. Gonna put insulation under my masonry thermal mass in the floor. The cooling tubes will be in floor to because code to act as vent to daylight for concrete/masonry floor. To vent heavier than air gas too. Putting in masonry stove/white oven, and masonry heater. Going with a post and beam square notched timber frame. To cut down on framing cost, wood use, and 70 psf snow loads.

Love this so much hope to see many more episodes.

A while back you made a short video and mentioned Earthship Kentucky. When is this going to happen? Where? I have got to go see it when under construction.

i have been watching the progress of 'earthships' for 20 plus yrs , where i live on a small , somewhat' remote island in the 'kinda' north pacific ocean ( hornby island ) the cost of living here is insane , but it is NOTHING like the houseing crisis , unless you have nothing less than 300,00 K , rentals are almost obsolete ! because of the popularity of this island , unfortunately the tourism industry rules ! we have an AWESOME ! recycleing depot here however ! we just need SERIOUS GUIDENCE ! there is at least 5 acres here , ready to develope into a habitat for multiple families / or those on the 3 year waiting list !!!!! ( owned by hornby island ) ready to develope , this project has been tossed around for OVER two decades !!!! HELP US !!!! PLEASE !

I am a fan of the earth ship idea. I understand the concept to be using readily available resources that some would call trash for economic building that is sustainable. Therefore, it is shocking to see earth ships for sale in Taos at prices from $500k to $900 k. Seems like price gouging and protesting more than pursuit of a passion cor service

I will contact the organization when I begin to build earthships and give them away for free to humans who want to help dismantle the economic slavery system, peacefully. Solidarity. ☺🤗

Hello mate what do you think of compressed earth blocks 200ton compressed and a centrifugal earth separator

Will you, to help spread the virus, reduce the price (or even offer) the "Simple Survival Earthships" Android app (currently ≈11$)?

i still have seen earthships for over 800,000 dollars!!! defenately not for people who work at mcdonalds or gas stations!!! how can they afford those????

Thank you Michael for sharing all your insights and stories. Thank you as well for ever dreaming, creating and improving this awesome architecture. My husband built one of the first earth ships in Montezuma County, Colorado for a client some 25 years ago and I love that house to this day. Keep up the good work and play!
