@lovefobia - there's earthbag and strawbale building, rammed earth. and in terms of the recycling, there's some cool things like using shipping containers as the framework, can combine that with other things, half-bury them, put them underground, etc.

@JollSSteR - not saying vegans or lacto-veggies are wrong, but technically that's a seed. in natural cultures a seed and an egg are the same thing. the problem these days is mostly because factory farming etc treats life like nothing, and that kind of thing causes disease, society to fail, everything bad. however, for the most part, if you wish to leave the rebirth cycle then you should be as vegan as possible. aryuvedic diet, now that is clever and very tasty.
