Love mine. It affords me the greatest luxury on earth, the ability for my wife to stay home and raise the the kids because the cost of living is so much lower. I live in Western Canada, They aren't just a New Mexico thing.

"You shouldn't have to make money to live, you should make money to play." Well said!

New life goal buy a land and build an earthship ❤❤❤

Many may call him a rule maker but I call him wise. He's ahead of his time. In order to live on this planet with climate change and rising costs, we will need to think outside the box.
-
as an aspiring architect, this is the most sustainable idea i have ever seen, IM IN LOVE!! I need to be able to make these houses

I personally like the idea of junk repurposed homes, and I think it could be great for everyone not just hippies and outsider culture.

Mike Reynolds is the modern-day Frank Lloyd Wright, in terms of going with the land instead of against it. Both men truly are revolutionary. I've already decided that an Earthship is what I want for a self-sustainable house.

I grew up in New Mexico & have seen these spread all over the state. I have really wanted one for years. Now I’m living on the east coast and recently got hurt in a bad accident. I really would love to have one & know so much about these. Maybe so,e time I can get out there to learn from the best and have others help me build mine. Helping to save the planet & teaching others how to do it is an amazing thing!

The Earthships are so awesome!!! Great ideas!!! I love them.👍💯😊
-
Moving to Virginia to buy a small piece of land and make my own earthship partially out of tires. Thank you for paving the way, Michael! ❤
-
Some of those houses are beautiful, specially the gigantic one you're still working on.❤
-
Fantastic documentary, thank you! It's still absolutely crazy to me that Mike and his wife don't live in The Phoenix. After all of that work and artistry, not to mention the mature vegetation that takes years to cultivate to where it's producing food, to abandon that masterpiece as a mere rental seems insane. If I'd built that house I'd never leave.

I have utter respect for Michael. He’s like Zefram Cochrane on the Star Trek movie

I was fortunate enough to stay in an earthship back in the early 90s owned by Dennis Weaver. It was a two-story 6000 square-foot luxury home located in Ridgway, Colorado. I absolutely loved it and knew, even back then in my early 20s, that someday I would buy land and build my own. I’m getting close to that point in my life where I’ll be able to do that. I will be heading to New Mexico to learn about these in depth hopefully sometime next year. These are the future of practical sustainable, living all over the world.

I worked in property management and real estate for years. I regularly said same thing, "people live in the space so it's totally personal to them." It's something people need to remember whenever they do anything for anyone in regards to their home. The little things matter for most people sometimes as much or more than the big things

its just a start to the movement.. so many ways ,,, so many options.. Mike is part of the global Game changer crew!
