Jamaica Earthship Demo - December 2008 - January 2009

Jamaica Earthship Expedition II
Tire pounding - Bottle walls - Mud plaster - Caribbean Sunsets
Negril, Jamaica Caribbean

There are four training sessions with space for 10 trainees per session. There will be an hour of "classroom" time each day. We will discuss the history and evolution of the Earthship concept, all the types of Earthship designs, independent power and water systems and design adaptations based on climate.

During the "hands-on" part of each day trainees work alongside the Earthship Commando Crew to do finish work on a one story Hut Earthship module, tailored for the Carribean climate and start construction of a second unit.

I am really interested in your earthship buildings, I live in the Trinidad & Tobago and was wondering if there are any plans to conduct a workshop here.
I really think that considering the cost of properties on these islands educating the populace on the value of green sustainable and affordable housing is essential.
At the moment on the island of Trinidad there is a lot of controversy surrounding cheap housing built for students at the University of Trinidad & Tobago from shipping containers.
