Houses built in Britain since the 15th century with clay, sand and straw called “cob” still stand today.
Cob is an inexpensive building material. If you do all the construction your self you can save a ton. Of course, you can always call a cob contractor. Which could cost as much as wood build House, you could also have trouble getting a bank to give you a loan.
Earth is non-toxic and completely recyclable. Now that's going green. Call over your friends and have an old fashion barn raising party. Every one of all ages and no experience can help.

Tips for Going Green
I know that many of you are concerned with Global Warming and would love to do your part, I am going to help you with that today.I will list some tips here for you that can make a huge difference in you health, your eletric bills and most of all your planet.
Light Bulbs:
Buy energy efficient light bulbs. They are higher than the regular light bulbs you have been purchasing but they last for 5-10 years so the cost is minimal in reality. G E makes some great CFL bulbs. You will not only be helping the planet you will also find that you save on your electric bill. If everyone changed just one light bulb it would be equivalent to saving the carbon
emissions on 800,000 cars.
Re-Cycle
The average person creates 4.5 pounds of trash per day. Think how much is going into the landfills if you are not recycling. You can recycle aluminum cans and foil, glass, but please rinse all containers before re-cycling, paper, a 4ft stack of recycled newspaper is equivalent to a 40 ft. fir tree. You can take packing peanuts to your local shipping store, most will take them from you happily.
Water Consumption:
When showering or taking a bath spend less time in the shower and do not fill your tub to capacity when taking a bath. This will save a lot of water and if we all did this we could save enough water to ensure that everyone in the world could have water. Also fill up your sink when shaving instead of running the water for the duration of the time it takes you to shave.
Paper Or Plastic?
The answer is neither. Most people answer this question saying paper, that is a wrong answer. Use re-usable bags that you can buy from stores in your area. Keep your bags in your vehicle so that if you make an unexpected stop to purchase something you have your own bag with you.
If each of you will incorporate one of these tips into your daily life the difference you make will be huge. It is difficult in the beginning to make all these changes but it becomes routine before long as anything you practice all the time does. How passionate are you about the planet?
