https://d.tube/v/eco-alex/9j4a9i6qInstead of planning a future where we hope to move into a nicer neighbourhood and a bigger house, what would our home look like if we considered the impact of our lifestyle on the planet? How can we make a home that includes everything we want with as little waste as possible?
I self-built Earthship Karuna on the edge of a mountain in India, it has almost no carbon footprint and yet provides great luxury and abundance from the gifts of nature. A truly sustainable eco-home!
Living in an Earthship or self-sufficient home is about many things. It is not just an ethical choice or a building type choice, it is also a lifestyle choice. When you start to live off-grid, and self-sufficiently, you embark on a break out from the matrix/zeitgeist. You start to unplug yourself from the normal, dependent, vulnerable, and highly controlled way of life that many people are used to in cities and highly developed countries.
When you are truly self-sufficient and out of debt you take away some of the main sources of stress: buying food, paying the bills, covering the mortgage or rent, and needing to work full-time to allow this to continue. We can also look at environmental issues and great need to build smarter and in a more connected way, especially in the face of climate change. Our global population is rising and with it the poverty level and inequality of wealth in all forms. To compound this issue, the cost of living is also hurtling up! We are moving toward a very unsafe and unsustainable future if we continue to build and live in the same way that we have been doing.
IMAGINE... living in a home that cost you nothing to heat or cool.
IMAGINE... building this home yourself.
IMAGINE... growing your own vegetables year-round in this home.
IMAGINE... no utility bills.
IMAGINE... easily available "limitless natural resources" to build this type of home.
IMAGINE... a more earth-friendly civilisation.
IMAGINE... Earthships!

Away from traffic jams and cars. It'd be great! Very inspiring post
Awesome. It would be nice if more of our society cared more about the Earth in this way.

What a great idea! The main part here is promoting and expanding this example for those who don't understand to start slowly changing people's mind!
You are an inspiration to me and that is my goal to have an Earthship and live a peaceful and meaningful life in harmony with the earth. Thank you so much for providing the book and I am going to read that today.
I'm Re-steeming this because I want to read up about how you did it in the link provided. Got to catch some sleep. It's midnight here. Goodnight everyone.

I would love to live like that - free from any bills and more important free from passively destroying our planet.
Hopefully I will have the resources (financial and time) to build such a home in such a beautiful and rich nature.
Thanks for sharing this!
Peace!
