I have been doing a lot of research into EarthShips, sustainable off-grid houses that use recycled and unconventional materials. In New Mexico there is an entire community that is thriving off-grid and I was thinking about possibly embarking on an endeavor such as that one day.
That is the leading earthship community in the world, as far as I know.
The guy that started it (Mike) -- is the former architect who has been at it a long long time, they run courses and teach worldwide how to build them.
If you can get there, I would not hesitate at all.
They had to jump thru HOOPS of course, gubment wise but eventually they were basically granted license to do what they want on all that land, as an experimental community.
I've been into all this stuff for a long time man LOL.
Some good docs online to watch for these guys. They are impressive.
