Earthship
An earthship is a type of passive solar house made of natural and recycled materials. The homes are primarily constructed to work autonomously and are generally made of earth-filled tires, using thermal massconstruction to naturally regulate indoor temperature. They also usually have their own special natural ventilation system. Earthships are generally Off-the-grid homes, minimizing their reliance on public utilities and fossil fuels.
