Alaska Bioshelter: Greenhouse

where do the bears sleep? lol

thats really cool. so what can you use your grey water for? and also I have an idea. a small pool of duckweed before the greywater storage would really clean it up good. duckweed is know to bring water to drinkable, it uses up all the minerals left in it. I don't think I would want to drink it though. your composting toilet is also a great design.just worms or do you add some benificial bacteria?

thanks!was dr john todd an inspiation foryour design?

[dacroz2]

Yes, among others. I was aware of--and inspired by work being done by the New Alchemy Institute (including John Todd, Bill McLarney, Ron Zweig, Earle Barnhart and others...) but it should be noted that there are also significant differences between this design (built in 1985) and the Cape Cod and PEI Arks.
