99 reasons why earthships are fuc!*ing awesome: Part #5 Reasons 41-50
Anyone who is considering building a home for themselves should look at Earthships as a solution. When you have taken the time to study them, in the real world.. you will very quickly discover that Earthships are superior to ANY kind of home and in just about every way. No other building can provide an official negative carbon footprint, because no other building can perform so well as to not even need fuel to heat or cool it. No other building can withstand earthquakes because Earthships do not have a concrete foundation, and there is no mortar holding it together. The massive tyre walls can not crack or break because they are held together by gravity... they can last thousands of years!
Simply put, no other method or approach to sustainable building has taken every need and requirement of the people living in it. The entire building functions like a finely tuned machine, that is what an Earthship is at its core... the most finely tuned home ever created, that performs so well and in so many ways, that it has redefined what a home is supposed to be.
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.

Dear friend @eco-alex, of the things that most encourage us to work is that it is not only a functional space, but also a pleasant space, not only for its temperature conditions or because water can be used 4 times, but also for the beauty of its construction taking into account the environment.
The moment will come when there is a Earthship in my country, we hope to be one of the first.
We are animated, with faith, enthusiasm and determination in a few years we can make it a reality.
Thank you for your support always.
I feel your passion, i know u can do it with patience and enthusiasm!
We are sure that we will do so, with a firm purpose, no matter how long it takes if we want to do things right, we will achieve it, "purpose and faith".
I liked those staircase designs, it looks like Alien-ship with al color light coming from those colored bottles. Water supply is important, that being addressed as mentioned by @eco-alex, then this is Great Emperors Palace. Welcome to my palace, let me walk you through.
Many people say they look like spaceships! That catch water! ;)
My beloved topic is here "Earth-Ship". Let's get Internet Of Things (IOT) and Earth-Ship together, this will make a good combination for Future to come, also in colonising Mars. Earth-ship has gained good reputation in sustainable housing solution at cheaper cost to break the Mortgage monopoly. How about the combination of Internet of things (IOT), 3D printing and Earth-ship. That would be great isn't it ??
Lol’ love your passion...
At this time it is indeed an environmentally friendly home like earthship that is really needed considering the many things that cause damage and pollution on earth.
Great story. Great painting. Envy your skills. I can’t draw anything if my life depended on it.
