In Australia we have an institution known as Men's Sheds, which may possibly fit in with your community concepts. kzfaq.info?search_query=Men%27s+Sheds

It is women and their desires that have driven men to acquire lots of things and even bigger things. That's it. That is why it is, what it is. Once you realize that, you are free.

Well the music is certainly inspirational. But I still consider this a typical western enterprise, I.e. educating the rest of the world. A Morrocan / Arab house would have many similar features, but built 500 years ago. Perhaps that is where the architect got thier ideas. Certainly wouldn't be the first time

One criticism. 1% is not a butterfly effect

Hey Eutopia, I was wondering who is the voice behind this content, it would be nice if you could introduce yourself here on youtube. :)

people dont realize the amount of excess heat that can be recycled

every metropolitan needs to turn into earthships with tower farms so we can return earth to the way it was originally.

👍

Great concept, but no animals? No chickens, rabbits, pigs, cows, goats.............

Too many close ups - can’t see things.

I only ever see things like this done on a small scale, like village, town or small community level. Never on a large scale like a city or a state or region. Does that mean that things like these are much more realistic and achievable because they're done on a small scale and therefore accountability and transparency are more viable?

Cost? In American dollars?

He wasn't clear on everything and unless I missed it, I didn't hear him state an overall purpose, so I'm left to make assumptions.

Spelling...!

So funny to find this video, 10 years ago during my environmental science studies me and my classmates helped building for a while. Back then we were building the tyre walls and we helped with roofing. It was a lot of fun

Eveybody can't do it because of land prices and land tax's in some country's being so expensive. Plus governments not giving planing permission

Where is that?

Be careful. Governments don't like you not relying on them.

See that's the problem with anything eco friendly; they all want to force you to be part of their "community". It's not enough that you are doing your part to save the earth, they can't just leave people ALONE.

Don't have to use tires that's a reuse dream and is not labor sensible ..Earth bags are easier and do not require a toxic dump permit .....😮

Did you use AI for your intro and outro child voice?

Very impressive but at the same time looks very cultish?

Where are the people?

I would like to live like this 😊❤ one day❤

Wonderful when a simple conversation on an alternative way inspires someone with authority over a large system to make a change for better to that system. From chemical to biodynamic, from a casual conversation. Power in words.

... I remember as a child asking that same question ...Why do animals take care of themselves, build their homes, forage and hunt for food. But grown ups stop playing and have to pay bills. The animals are free, why aren't we. As an adult I'm remembering the only one true sauce is love, fear is a human condition that fearful thoughts manifest negatively. I pray as a collective we open our hearts and consciousness to the power of LOVE to manifest joy into this world ❤⁸

i was thrilled when I saw the first part, but when i heard Diversity?.. hmmmm wdym by that? if you want to stop racism dont talk about it.. or if you mean LGBT in your community - thats clearly a work of evil.

What are the costs beyond the houseboat? If I buy a houseboat and want to place it as a second home in Amsterdam? How do you find a location? Hard to get information from USA.

looks expensive and bourgeois...

I want to share my Eutopia idea hope we are not far...

Old tires leach petrochemicals, rubber compounds and all kinds of heavy metals (including mercury and lead) into surrounding soil and groundwater. A tire, even partially, submerged in water will kill most aquatic life within weeks. Plants will absorb these pollutants, so eating anything grown next to an old tire is literal poison. Don't even use the plants for composting for the same reason. Just like re-using old yoghurt/butter/milk/... plastic pots will leach BPA and micro-plastics after a year of exposure to water, oxygen and especially sunlight. Re-using/saving money is great. But keep in mind there is more to consider than saving money or waste. Some people might even think it's not that big of a deal, but for anyone who is still debating whether to use them or not: DO NOT.

That cartoon bit was propaganda level 😅

Тим часом Українське село просто існує 😆

Smells like greenwashing an unsustainable rich-people suburban lifestyle that covers an enormous amount of ground. Then the daily communing, because they live remote, required a lot of gas. Which also proves they are not self-sufficient. Where I live, in the same area, we have more than 700 inhabitants. How to apply that "awesome great sustainable concept" for average people?

Amazing! I wish we could all live like this.

I've always felt that the Rocket Mass Heater is the older version of modern Masonry Heaters. Masonry being the upgrade naturally.

The trick is to view children as equals where decisions are made for the whole community, and experiential learning is their primary education, alongside collective wisdom. With that comes a sense of ownership, duty, service and stewardship. Above all else, the idea of Sacrifice takes a central role - Children see adults / adolescents selflessly contributing - seemingly for no reward. Over time, they learn that human connection, physical and mental wellbeing, stability and safety, are the highest gifts, and no amount of greed or power will ever purchase that. When the children ask an adult: "Do you think you are a good person?", the adult says "It's not for me to answer, though you should ask any one of my neighbours what he/she thinks of me." The answer has always been the same. I look at the US, down to the street level, and the problem's quite clear. Streets have historically belonged to the community around the world, but the US kind of built up around the car. They commute to work, where they spend most of the day having to suppress basic needs, away from their babies, only to drive alone back home. An epidemic of loneliness. The disconnect erodes purpose, the 9 to 5 is, more often then not, a "bullshit job" and people are painfully aware. Talking about what's painful, those gruelling shifts at work leave you with no time to prepare a well-balanced meal for the family, but processed foods can be reheated in minutes and it keeps forever.Miserable food makes you miserable, and so with chronic illness and low energy, you finally agree to that benzo prescription, or those pain meds. They don't fix you, but they'll dull your receptors so that you won't feel it - but there's side effects too. You have no time for intimacy but even if you did, well you might be one of the unlucky 50% who takes an SSRI (anti-depressant), only to realise that "actually, now I can't perform and I'm not attracted to my wife". For this KZfaq video, here's how the narrative plays out: The American people know it's what's missing, they're longing for it... until a media mogul or cookie-cutter musician calls it "close to Communism" and then the discussion is over. Back to work - harder this time, because maybe they're slacking - the News told them so, and that's un-American.

until the first teenager gets muscle

I love your project and I have plan to create project same you too I hope that one day we will can to be friend and make this world full-fill of happiness with nature connect our soul ☺️ Thank you so much for your video

watch at .25 speed

Not my thing, but i appreciated knowledge sharing as apart of building a community resilience - a good idea. Also interesting comment on community outgrowing its connections with over 25 families or so. Sounds like we have not evolved beyond tribalism after all.

i would say this is great, but i would also say that those houses are too close together, part of the beauty of self reliance is the solitude. i think we're not as social as we want to be...? we need space, this looks like a suburb... the best suburb ever, yes... but still...

that place seems so nice.. maybe more during night time =) the only thing is dont make the bushes or plants to grow so much because of snakes and other small dangerous creatures like scorpions including the rooftops.

pretty cool. I really admire theses projects. I still feel the overreliance on solar panels isn't a very self sufficient approach. its easy now because if they break or you want to expand the grid... just go buy another. i guess its a compromise to have the luxury of reliable electricity.

The principles I like and thumbs up for the hard work! I just wanted to give my critical opinion because there are too less opinions in this world 🤪. I’m a real design lover and also love esthetic architecture. Well let me just be critic on the interior. I just wished there were communities with people that love iconic design furniture. The reason why is because real design is somehow durable. I saw a Poang chair in the house of ikea and some leather sofa’s that were trendy in the year 2000 but you will have to replace those in 15 years time. As well as the fabricated things that are just not cohesive in my view wich is sad because it seems like durable vision was the base point. Long story short , it’s not because its ecologic that it shouldn’t look good. But then again I’m just easy typing here so “petje af” for the effort and vision. For the not dutch people: petje af is like the same as “I take my had off for you guys”.

Why does this “thriving successful” place, look pretty much abandoned and unused?

I would love to live in a place like this

Wish I wasn't disabled and could live like this 😞

Wow Amazing!! I really would love to live in such a biological home 🥰❤️🌱
