earthship

Apparently there is a movement to make houses that sustain themselves independent of public utilities like power, water supply, and water treatment. So in the US,  there came the Earthship, a solar-powered home insulated with tires packed with earth and decorated with recycled materials like bottles.

 Would I live in a house like this? Yes, I would.  Do I think it has to look like a hippie spaceship? No, I don't.
