I mean, they are all essentially soil, right? And so they require digging in the earth, which is pretty invasive, to acquire, plus soil doesn’t replace itself anytime quickly. How is that different than a rock quarry or a gravel pit? Seems like something like straw bale housing might be more sustainable. It still has the soil on the outside, but most of the thickness is straw bales, which are easily replenishable. What do you think?

I am so impressed and in awe of the environmental practices that you and David do and aspire to do. You are a role model! A true ecosexual. :)
