  • Why don't the people who live in these countries just demand honest governments that don't steal from them and thwart development in every way? If government is for you and not against you, you have real jobs paying real money and can live in a real house, not a hut made out of bottles.

  • except they make it illegal here in the usa

  • using sacks make faster work

  • I wonder if people who don't recycle would do so if they knew they could provide a home for a child?

    Might be worth doing a "feed the children" type commercial in each area of the project to see if people might bring their bottles right to the site! I was a volunteer coordinator and many of our volunteers were folks who saw what we were doing as they dropped off donations. Just a thought.

  • @CrowsNest2012 seriously get off of the child card, I'm tired of being trivalized/marginalized as an adult. we should start recycling the floating islands of trash in the oceans . this would make a great source of material. where's the profit motive though?

  • In 2000? Serioously? They were doing this in the 70's when I was a kid.  Nothing new here.

  • What happens when they need to be taken down?? where does the plastic go then?? Recycle them and build with cob!! Plastic getting used like this just means more plastic has to be produced instead of recycled.

  • @ImDaveCrazy Your theory would work if those bottles were actually being recycled. They are not.

  • @Veganomante They should be then as this will just pollute!! Take a look at "great pacific garbage patch" this is where all the waste plastic that ends up in the ocean ends up and it is slowly suffocating the oceans. This isn't environmentally friendly, its just using waste that should be correctly disposed of! Cob or straw would be environmentally friendly!!

  • regardless of any negative comments on here I think it's pretty cool. Sure it takes more labor to pack the soil into the plastic bottles but well worth the effort!!!

  • Everything is posible just start!!

  • @EcoTecnologia How would I go about getting an internship or job with EcoTecnologia?

  • @elicash80

    Just write to

    ecotecsoluciones@gmail.com and tell mi a littel more about you

    nice day

  • How can a group of people get their hands on enough tires or bottles to make this a reality? Is it just as simple as visiting the dump?

  • I thought the bottles were going to be recycled into plastic bags of some sort not use 40 million bottles in a single wall.... How is this ecological when they could be recycled into something more useful and beneficial to the structures?

  • @MidnightMarrow The mere cost of shipping before they can even recycle them make them beneficial to use where they are. In addition they do make a good wall.

  • what is the advantage over stacking soil? 

  • every "EYE" should "SEE THIS" !!!

  • Don't plastics leach contaminants (carcinogens, etc.)into water? Wouldn't this be a problem, particularly when used for water tanks?

  • @WaimanaloBlue I believe there is a layer between the bottles and the water...

  • @WaimanaloBlue

    we plaster the tank using cement

    but think about that we all drink water bottle and a lot more of drinking staff before...using like a brick

  • a chei maravilhoso,ecologico.

    tamtos desabrigados o governo diz não ter dinheiro .

    pratico,barato e ecologíco show!

  • عجيييييييييييييييب

  • hmm... I'm glad I had the mute button engaged when I got here.

  • @ColeFried81 To avoid hearing the music you dislike, without yet knowing you disliked it since you had yet to hear it?

  • @bertazoid No, to avoid music from another video. Then when I got to this video, I jumped forward and disengaged the mute button which revealed terrible techno.

    :)

  • Can you build like this for a 4-5 story house or building?

  • @Bak3dB3an Possible but vaccum sealing of each bottle will play a factor, the you must account for the loss of volume in each bottle for the loss of air. Compression is not a factor in a vaccum +/- xxfor temperature during the seasons. Would make a great study!

  • This has been done since the 70's was even used in the rebuilding of Indonesia in 2005 watch Garbage warrior uses not just bottles too do build his houses this does look cool but they make using bottles look like they are not using them

  • Why do not we create such solutions, are simple

  • @marsouka1 because big utility companies stand to lose a lot of money should this catch on. I recommend seeing Garbage Warrior that the above poster mentioned. It will show you exactly why we don't do this. You will get a glimpse into the bureaucracy road blocks that prevent us from even trying these things.

  • beautiful!

    

  • earthship and mike reynolds have been building with cans bottles tins , aluminium can and old car tyres for over 30 years , though this is a good start

  • maybe they should just set up soda shops so that people can go and get their tanks filled with sweet soda nectars for a cheap price, and just stop making so much plastic

  • Grandiosoooooooooooooooooooooo­oooooo,muchas felicidades.

  • Wonderful and beautiful.

  • muy bien!!!!! felicidades

  • Solutions:

    1- the 1 child policy , globally

    2- eco-bottles or reduce soda/ bottled water consumption . I botle coud be refilled SEVERAL TIMES

    3- Container-deposit legislation (PFAND)

    4- in some countries theres been made everything even cloth out of recycled bottle plastic

    5- AGAIN STOP HAVING MORE THAN 1 CHILDREN FOR THE PLANET'S SAKE

  • @norteamericana100 The one problem with your solution n°1 is that people won't stop killing little girls just in order to have boys (in some…asian countries…if you know what I'm talking about)

  • @Sisyanor

    well , murder should be punished

  • @Sisyanor Great reply!

  • Genesis 1: 28 Fructificad y multiplicaos; llenad la tierra, y sojuzgadla, y señoread en los peces del mar, en las aves de los cielos, y en todas las bestias que se mueven sobre la tierra.

    Hemos sido llamados a cultivar y cuidar la tierra, a discernir los limites de nuestras actividades, en comunion con Dios. El cuidar de la creacion, es una forma de amar a Dios y a nuestro projimo.

    ¡GRACIAS ECOTEC POR MOSTRARNOS EL AMOR DE DIOS EN ACCION!

  • Muy bueno!!
