Angel's Nest is a sustainable home in Taos, New Mexico made from straw bale, tires, pop cans and bottles. The electricity is generated through wind and solar technology. Rain water is captured as culinary water and there is a bio-diesel/hydrogen fueling station outside. http://www.empowermentchannel.org

  • I agree; no more growing cars.

  • Correction to my previous comment:

    3rd world countries? Take a trip to many of the Indian reservations here in the United States and you'll see 3rd world living conditions.Makes sense to fix things in this country FIRST before trying to fix problems in foreign countries.There's much to be done here in the USA.

  • @SantosRegal Obviously this house isn't built for the poor. I imagine the people who built this one are quite wealthy. However, scaled down & fully sustainable Earthships have been built in Haiti using the same principles and techniques for $2500 total. The buildings harvest rainwater for free to supply drinking water, provide much more sanitary conditions, and basic solar electricity. $2500. Granted still a lot of money in the 3rd world, but the technology IS scaleable. /watch?v=OgCbvsuQaNw

  • @tessabianca Gaia's Fountain of Life...Google it (Very expensive drinking water fountain)

  • While I'm all 4 the environment, love the sustainable homes & so on, I see how on these videos they keep talking about how it would help the planet & all the people in it, I can't help to also see that all of these is not cheap or affordable, folks, these stuff is NOT for the poor in Somalia or in villages where they don't have clean water, that water machine right there, cost $2500.00 & produces 18GL a day, a house in Somalia cost average $500.00 & they can't afford one,so do the math folks!

  • @soldatheero

    99% of the decisions about "the home" are made by women. You are probably not married, I guess.

  • Your presenting this home to President Bush?? You fool! You do of course realize that Bush played a key role in the events of September 11, 2001. At least I hope you do by now. If you don't, then you are nothing more than an insult to the whole Earthship concept!
