We appreciate any help you can give us in getting the word out! We want you to send out our message only to those you feel would benefit from it.
Below is a brief summary of the earthship project:
Florida’s first Earthship is being built in Manatee County. Designed to be in harmony with the environment and entirely self sufficient, this sustainable structure uses recycled and indigenous materials, generates its own electricity and processes its own waste with NO impact on the environment.
We are bringing together College Students, Builders, Government Officials, Architects, Engineers and Vendors representing the best new Alternative Technologies that are available NOW! All of this in one place for an experience that will jump start “Green” in our fine state.
No place in America (that we know of) has this type of project been done. We want to show everyone, “There is a lot of Green to be made in Green”. This is a great opportunity to take your company, your career or just your summer to the next level.
We are excited about this event and look forward to your participation, in whatever form it may take.
This is one of the most unique events to hit Florida in years. A springboard to the Green movement in Florida, and everyone involved in the Green Effort is invited to attend.
We would appreciate it if you visited our website and then forwarded this email to any individual you think might benefit or be interested in this event.
If you know anyone who would like to speak at this event or might have an idea for participation or sponsorship other than what is covered on the website, please have them contact ray@earthshipflorida.com while visiting the site.
So come and visit us, let us open your eyes, change your life, and preserve your environment so you can help change the minds and hearts of others. We will give everyone an appreciation for all things green$.
In advance, thank You for helping us get the word out.
Earthships are made out of recycled materials, such as tires and soda cans.
Earthships catch water from the sky and use it up to four times.
Water is heated from either the sun or by natural gas, but they can have city/county water as a backup water supply.
Earthships produce their own electricity, but can have multiple energy sources such as solar and wind-generated energy. The energy is stored in batteries and supplied to electrical outlets in the home.
Earthships contain and reuse all household sewage in indoor and outdoor treatment cells. The waste is used for food production and in landscaping.
Earthship toilets flush with greywater that does not smell.
Because of the way they’re built, Earthships maintain comfortable temperatures in any climate.
