Hello friends, I live in Parry Sound Ontario Canada, I was going to buy 8.13 acres and build a basic geodesic dome tent and Seguin Township doesn’t even allow for me to build a wood platform for the dome. Cant even place a ad on your own land. It’s oppressive hoarse crap! Like the videos guys, I will find my pocket of freedom:)

I’m guessing there will come a point when we stop ASKING these bureaucratic bitches if we, the people, can stop polluting and start taking care of ourselves and our communities…and just start DOING it!

I reckon a tipping point is approaching where people will choose to shelter themselves in something radically efficient, like an Earthship, and stop living in dread of paper/man-made rules. At some point there will be too many “rule waves” for them to do anything other than watch in amazement

@csreeves
Hell, at some point in the foreseeable future, those paper pushing bureaucrats will be begging YOU to lecture THEM how to house for and provide food for their own families. (Perhaps you’ll choose to place THEM on a two year coming up list and then make them fill out all sorts of forms, and pay for and submit to psychological evaluations to determine if they’re even fit to take care of themselves without the watchful eye of the government making certain it’s done properly)

Europe is even of poorer quality, I live in Europe, the Netherlands and we have one project here, in Groningen to be exact., but they say it is one of a kind, because we have no room for it. But the equipment can be used in uncommon ways, but is ignored by the ones i hegemony. With that particular project he problems with regulations where overhanded to the Minister of that time, called Jacqueline Cramer, that was more then one year ago, now she’s unemployed, but never of any use to start with.

@insAneTunA I always question people, how many slaps in the face do you need to get before you realize that you are getting abused??? How clear is it to you that those who are in hegemony do not want you to be able to be self sustainable and pleased and educated enough to realize that our governments failed in any way possible?

That is why I mediate it’s excellent that these videos show that it’s possible to live in peace and pleased collectively with the ones in hegemony, and that it’s not a battle.

Peace, iT

Hello earthship people! I am seriously contemplating becoming one of you, and building my own earthship in Denmark – I do but have one concern about the use of car tires as building material – car tires consist mainly of oils – some of which cause cancer, how do you – 40 or 50 years down the road -prevent leakeage into the house or the ground around it? and have you considered alternatives like tubes filled with earth or rammed earth walls?
