  1. Seems to me like you are likely to get moisture problems with the insulation on those walls. Also, I am no fan of using the tires. I like that it´s a nice way of “up-cycling” something that as a waste is problematic. But it seems to me to be so much work that has to go into using tires, that is not really necessary. Just using a sturdy frame and compacting earth the old fashioned way seems to do much the same and in a much more efficient way. Or even doing it the Geoff Lawton way, by having an excavator compact a large mound and then using its bucket to carve out the space needed from that compacted mound.

  2. The primary limitations of this design are that it is extremely labor intensive and that it is not suitable for large spans (e.g. as used in larger commercial greenhouses).

  3. Great video. I’ll never build one as it’s not appropriate for a subtropical climate, but I was impressed with how thorough and detailed the film was. If I was going to build one, I would feel confident that the supporting e-book, plans, etc. had the level of detail needed to do each step with confidence. This is the kind of information that permaculture needs more of. Also at $100 for the whole kit it is easily affordable to a wide audience.

  4. I love the earthship movement.
    A pity we never saw the completed greenhouse at the conclusion of the movie.
    I always wonder about what might leak from those tyres…..

  5. Great idea, it will safe a lot of energy in the future, i guess very useful in cold climates and with so many strong materials it must be durable. But i am questioning the difference between tires or just compacted earth as thermal mass, i guess it safes some money in the beginning of construction material, although you´ll maybe need more people to help out…what is good for the group spirit :) of course, congratulations and respect for the crew putting all this together.

  6. I’m a little disappointed that those of us in North America don’t have ask weekend to view the film. I’m on a limited budget and can’t pitcher the film but would have LOVED to have watched it. 8:20 pm on Sunday and is no longer available :(

  7. GAH!!! I had to be away this weekend at my parents and they have no WIFI. It wasn’t up Friday early enough for me to see it before I left, and I just got home Sun evening at 8:30 – and it’s over!! Grrrr. Oh well – some ya win, some ya lose. Sigh.

      1. Thanks – I’ll keep an eye out. Not blaming you guys or the film folks – just bummed I missed the opportunity. C’est la vie! Cheers.

  8. I only watched the start, but the video seems to assume a Canadian climate without specifying this, and makes some other questionable design assumptions (e.g. rammed earth in tyres is an appropriate wall material.) I think it’s time to knock that one on the head — it’s not a generally advisable construction method.

  9. I love the earthship idea
    but there must be an easier way to do the back berms
    maybe Lime stabilised rammed earth
    as they did in tombs in china thousands of years ago.
    would love to build one of these greenhouses / earthships even if on a small scale
    as a demo site.
    …..BUT I object to these all-out advertisments.
