RE: The Importance of Sustainable and Holistic Living.

I don't think there's one perfect answer regarding building materials. Each person will have to balance their own resources with what the environment has to offer. We haven't begun to build yet, but we're keeping concrete on the table as an option if the longevity / heat control seems to balance out other environmental impact. I've seen some folks build earthbag homes adding just a small amount of cement to the natural clay and soil on their property to add more durability to the structure, and that only takes a few bags of cement. Again, each person and local will be different, I'm sure. Thanks for taking the time to read and for the nice comment on the photo. I've enjoyed taking pictures as we travel. !PIZZA
