Dennis Weaver's Earthship

I was sad to hear that Dennis Weaver died the other day. I used to love watching McCloud with my dad. I didn't know until a few minutes ago that he and his partner lived in an earthship. I think it is a fabulous idea to build a place using all kinds of recycled stuff!

"Earthship Biotecture designs and builds homes that...
• Heat and cool themselves naturally via solar/thermal dynamics...
• Collect their own power from the sun and wind...
• Harvest their own water from rain and snow melt...
• Contain and treat their own sewage on site...
• Produce a significant amount of food...
• And are constructed using largely the byproducts of modern society;
like cans, bottles and tires."
