It isnt sustainable, in 100 years it will be nothing but a pile of garbage and people will be complaining about how stupid this was.

Please do yourselves a favor and STOP PUTTING TERRIBLE MUSIC IN THESE AWESOME VIDEOS!!! At minimum just go instrumental!!!

Angle Inlet and Point Roberts should be given to Canada. Purely historically Canadian places that the US took through silly cartographic errors.

There what??

Incredible

Beautiful stuff. Very warm and welcoming places. Imagine walking through your living room and picking an orange as you walk by the tree. I've designed and built some incredible homes, have worked in some the most beautiful classic homes in America but this is very impressive.

Huh. If having no connection to your country is a problem, what should we do with Alaska. Or Peurto Rico?

I just found this channel, but it has been inactive for a year. Where did you go??

Only thing about earthships that seems like a crazy hazard is the tires. Everything else is fine but tires release so many toxins and pollutants into the air, ground and water. I get the desire of it being cheap and lasting for basically ever. But if there’s an alternative material like metal barrels, or wood or even cibder block it’d be significantly better for your health. But then it’d have a cost which defeats the purpose.

I’d love an Earthship! I just want it in a place where I’d be happy. Desert isn’t my happy place :p

Let's bring in some 3D home printing ideas to the construction processes and use on-site materials. Make an adobe-like building material.

wow

No disrespect and not tryna make everything about race but are black ppl welcome i love tht place

Our government wants no one to have anything sustainable unless they’re collecting taxes on it and selling it to you. Climate change is a ridiculous scam causing more pollution than it will ever eliminate.

So like a community of rich hippies?

This feels like a cult though😂

Definitely safe and up to code.

I actually do have a reasonable solution if anyone wants to read it: Basically Canada and USA would 1.) swap a small area of coastal waters, 2.) make the border a straight line, 3.) extend their "coastal borders" a little bit, and finally 4.) build a 4 lane highway belonging to both USA and Canada. HERE'S HOW: The straight line border would be very close to where it already is. It would go from the southern-most point of Northwest Angle, South to the tip of land just west of Buffalo Point Marina. The new "coastal borders" would be along the coast line of Sandy Point Bay and the coast line of Buffalo Point (Canada gains Sandy point coast while USA gains some of Buffalo Point coast). The highway would be 4 lanes right on the border. The East 2 lanes would belong to Canada (traveling North/South) while the West 2 lanes would belong to USA (also traveling North/South. I think this is a very fair agreement that would equally benefit both sides, although mostly solving a USA problem.

Magnificent , smart, loving human being, such a problem solver of some many issues.

Guy with bleeding nose : thats why saleds "banned".

Controlled by what America? Southern or Northern America, or Latin America?

Newfoundland wasn't part of Canada until March 31, 1949. You got some facts wrong and not well researched.

This looks like a pretty fun way to workout honestly. Little pain keeps pushing you. Everybody go help out Ukraine! They need us. That is the most important thing. But loved the video.

What about a boat??

The reason the government the architectural community don't like it is because they won't get paid. Insurance won't get paid and the government won't get a cut. Its just a bunch of pissed off middle men.

People laughed at him, the US gov tried to stop him with a bunch of BS bureaucracy. But he's winning. Not just that but he's making better use of cans and bottles than those who put that stuff in a landfill. And those homes or Earthships he created are lovely.

This was solid journalism that explored the various sides of an issue with fairness and open-mindedness. Way to go, fellas!

I'm interested in sustainability but not interested in weirdo newage vegan geriatric sex cults that seem to be inseparable from the eco village part.

I'm disabled on Disability. Really how can I live in an earthship?

How do you become a part of this,I dream of living a life this way, being a part of this purpose

The planet is already sustainable. It's the wickedness of people who make things unsustainable.

I am too old now but I would have loved to do this. This is awesome.

"The roof is slanted..." No shit lady. ALL roofs are slanted. She's neither a light bulb or a knife.

I wanna do this so bad!! My son and I need and deserve clean living

So beautiful guys

Don’t start an argument where this isn’t one. The government couldn’t care less. Find land that’s zone A1 agricultural zoned land. And start building. But you need a good size truck. They need to learn about building, how to site the site, how to put fence in if you want livestock.

Is Earthship living only for vegetarians? I eat animal-based. Is there a town not too far away, or a farmer where you can buy grass-fed meat? One freedom I DON’T see is farm outbuildings with chickens and goats. Is this allowed?

the dude declaring war on himself is the funniest thing about this to me

False, those solar panels need to be replaced every 10 or so years. Sustainability is a rhetoric with no practical meaning.

I LOVE the off grid concept !! BUT when a group of people live on SHANTY BOATS like this, JUST WHAT DO THEY DO WHEN THEY HAVE TO SHIT !!!

Its really self gratifying living this lifestyle.

Made me think of sob city.

I wonder why they don't spin the tires on a base and pour in sand to fill them. Centrifugal force.

I understand it’s built from recycling but I’m still wondering what the cost might be on top of that and your plot of land.

#Respect

10:11...this house is worth 1.5 million dollars....this is the problem in todays world. A literal pile of trash is being marketed for 1.5 MILLION DOLLARS!!! So you need to be rich already, and then decide to give your money away to move into the middle of no where...you people are sick

I am interested how eco friendly and safe to humans are the chemicals in the tires and other garbage and the use of feces as fertilizer.

I tried to join the Army when I was 16. I think anyone that wants freedom should be in the service. Freedom is not free.
