Earthbag Village Time Investment Projections
How long will it take to build a complete earthbag construction village to house over 100 people? We think less than 2 years and here is the newly finished open source page with One Community's complete projections and calculation details: http://www.onecommunityglobal.org/earthbag-village-time-investment/ This page is the open source and free-shared earthbag village time investment projections page that will evolve with the open source project-launch blueprinting of the One Community earthbag village (Pod 1). When complete it will include detailed analysis of the time it took One Community to build the complete earthbag village as a sustainable teacher/demonstration community, village, and city model. This page will also include additional time investment details specifically for building one dome home and a trio of domes, just the Tropical Atrium, and each of the vermiculture toilets and the communal showers.
