Synopsis
In 1990, the Findhorn Foundation started constructing an ecological village, replacing old caravans with ecological houses and also creating a village whose purpose is to show a way of life based both on respect for the earth and the spiritual principles of the Foundation. This book provides a detailed description of the theory, practice and products used in the Ecological Village Project. The project combines standard building techniques and the basic philosophy of ecological building and its application. Some of the major issues discussed are: the use of natural materials; responsible design for energy and resource conservation; radon; the use of non-toxic material and construction methods; and renewable energy systems, including wind power and solar energy. The book is presented in a ring binder in order to allow for regular updates as understanding of ecological building improves.
