Exploring Alternatives takes you on a guided tour through a sustainable “earthship home”, showing exactly how one man is reducing his footprint on our planet. You can follow Exploring Alternatives YouTube channel here https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC8EQAfueDGNeqb1ALm0LjHA
This 3-bedroom Earthship home has it all: 10kW of solar panels, rainwater collection cisterns, indoor gardens, a wood-fired boiler, and passive cooling tubes.
It’s built with recycled tires, bottles and cans, and off-cuts from a log home builder. After years of following the Earthship movement, Matt was able to take a course at the Earthship Academy with Michael Reynolds in New Mexico and then worked with Ted Elsasser to build his own passive solar home in Ontario, Canada.
