Michael Reynolds Interview Part 4 & Earthship Tours

The 4th and final part of my interview with Michael Reynolds in 2003, with some additions and re-edits. Since the taping of this interview (indeed, since the 80's when I started following the Earthship news), it's obvious that we've made some progress towards a better way of living on this planet. It is through his efforts (and a little help from other earth angels) that New Mexico passed his Sustainable Development Testing Site Act. Check out what Michael has to say about this, and his latest project E.V.E., Earthship Village Ecologies, at earthship.com...evolution beyond economics.

You can also see Michael's story and the evolution of Earthships in the film Garbage Warrior.

Again, many thanks to Michael Reynolds, and to his office for additional photos; and DATV staffers for assistance with the original production in 2003.

Music in this series is performed by Puzzle of Light, a group from Dayton Ohio; and Michael & Sandy Bashaw; compositions include Veldt & Village and Crescent Moon, composed by Michael & Sandy Bashaw, and Cehn, an improvisation by Michael and Sandy Bashaw and Bob Thompson.

It took years for the herd to wake up to the genius of Copernicus, Da Vinci, Newton, Franklin and Einstein! The irony is third world countries may take the lead in this concept. The other irony is this isn't hard science, it's a no brainer, common sense must prevail! This guy is inspirational, with all the shit going on in the world today it is so uplifting to find someone looking outside the box and providing SOLUTIONS and loving it!!
