Man likes to think of himself as the caretaker of nature and the world. It is closer to the truth to say that nature is man's caretaker; or that man exists, physically speaking, as the result of the graceful support of nature and all its other species.
The Earthship is a completely independent globally oriented dwelling unit.
The Eartship is made from materials that are indigenous to the entire planet.
The Earthship has been designed to reduce our impact on the planet and increase our connection to it.
The Earthship utilizes recycled and low embodied energy materials, passive solar heating and cooling, photovoltaic power system, catchwater, solar hot water, gray water and black water treatment systems.
