    The problem society has is that now they are fighting big businesses (Electrical, Water, Nuclear, Oil companies) who are fostering the incorrect building codes to keep us locked into “unnatural manners” of air conditioning or rather cooling management of our homes. In hotter climates thicker walled structures with doubled roofs or thicker roofed homes to keep the heat out has always worked best. Even the lighting is great needing no power during a daylight hours.

    Also, I have been longing to purchase some remote landscape here in the states where i can build and develop an All-Natural village of African and eastern and Primordial Dwellings using earth, mud, bricks, grass/straw, etc, and have being completely Off-The-Grid, yet having many current-day conveniences, such as electricity, running water, indoor AND outdoor kitchen facilities, but yet have NO UTILITY BILLS - energy directly from Nature and The Elements! I'll get there soon enough, but it's the architecture of Ancient African Dwellings that I'll be using. Grass & Earthen Domes truly inspire me. There are too many techniques to choose from that will work to construct a very beautiful and comfortable home space. I can hardly wait! Thank you again for your presentations! Ahsante sana.

I AM an African born and raised in the states (the citadel of western lies and African ignorance) and I see and know the need for us to revisit and Resurrect our dwelling architectures, using earth, mud, brick, stones, grass-thatched, and plant poles. This western grid is a joke and an outright abomination to The Natural World and True Community. Thanks again Sistah! Ahsante sana!

    Agreed overall. If you live in a hot environment, as global warming worsens, to make the decision to depend entirely upon a reliable power grid and machinery to cool your home is, frankly, SUICIDE. You need thick EARTHEN walls, period. Concrete can work but is more expensive. Hempcrete or straw walls require wood/bamboo framing, but also might work if you have sustainable forests nearby. The key is THICK walls; we're talking 10" or more. Alternatively, build partially or entirely UNDERGROUND. I've been to Delhi in the summer. Most buildings are relying on A/C. Then they have a powergrid problem so there are power cuts daily then everyone fires up their generators and now you have more smog and more problems with heat. It's madness. And don't forget, A/C units generate heat! So you are just creating MORE heat collectively, in the environs, which forces the A/C unit to work even HARDER. And now people are DYING in Delhi because of the local urban hotspot they are creating via terrible urban design and terrible modern architectural design..
