I like them and the idea.

cffutah says:

Living here would feel like I'm in the Star Wars movie, I'd love it.

TheWhistler says:

Interesting. It is obvious that we have to start planning for the future, but will we be in time before shortages and health problems start.

Kimbesa says:

Love Garbage Warrior. That's what sparked an interest in progressive architecture. Thanks for this lens. More connections!

John says:

I like them, they dont look so nice right now, but I am sure as more people get intrest in them, then the better they will look. If you would like to find out more about wind energy and other alternitive energy then visit us:

The Home Of The Future Is Earthships

BigToyz says:

This lens is da shizzzznitest! I definitely wanna build something like this for my own home... maybe even make it quasi-subterrainial, like a Hobbit house or something. Excellent lens! Keep it up, eh? Woo-hoo!!

greenmeds says:

This lens is fantastic! I *LOVE* the information you have gathered together here! Thank you oh, so much!

I'm a great lover of log cabin construction, but the practical and more Earth-friendly side of me loves this type even more. Who knows? Maybe I'll incorporate the two when I build my home!

Once again, excellent lens - do please keep up the Great Work! ^_^

I don't like them or the idea.
