Earthships – Michael Reynolds

Posted by Jake


SO, my questions are, WHY is this message not spreading like WILDFIRE???  Why are people like Michael Reynolds not being awarded the NOBEL PRIZE??

I think about staying warm and living well, especially when it starts getting close to freezing around here…so many people, including myself, would find themselves hungry, freezing and worried, if the power went out, mid winter…SO WHY WORRY??  Why not do it now, because it’s the right choice, on so many other levels than just surviving.  My opinion is these houses are MUCH nicer and kind to the body, than the boxes most of us find ourselves living in currently.

I’m done asking…..WHY….I’m getting started…… TODAY!!!!!  My dream is to build an Earthship, near a spring and grow food for all who are hungry…..WE CAN DO THIS!!  WE CAN DO IT NOW!!

I love this message and this technology….my prayer is that it does spread….and FAST!!  If you haven’t seen the Garbage Warrior yet…watch it ASAP!!!  So much info being given to us by this man’s work.

Thank YOU… Michael Reynolds!!!!!!


Books are available too, with detailed schematics on building one of these yourself….such powerful info!!!

    I’m not sure if you know this Jake but Todd bought these books twenty years ago and he and I (and surprisingly even Ben) are very interested in this as well as some of the other alternative construction methods (earth bag, straw bale etc.)

    If we buy a piece of land down there are you in?
