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.
