Earthship
Tours, Stanmer Park,
Brighton
BN1 9PZ
Sunday 21 March (regular tours -
please ring number below)
10.30am
Earthships are cutting edge 'green' buildings, constructed using waste car
tyres and other recycled materials. They use the planets natural systems to
provide all utilities - using the sun's energy and rain to provide heat, power
and water. They are buildings that heat and cool themselves, harvest their
own water and use plants to treat their sewage.
Earthships enjoy the weather, regardless of season. If it's raining they catch
free water, if it's windy they generate free power and if it's sunny they are
capturing free heat and electricity. Apart from using all the resources immediately
around them they also employ extensive energy efficiency and water conservation
measures, ensuring that the rainwater and renewable energy they harvest goes
as far as possible.
If you would like to attend one of these regular tours turn up on the lawns
in front of Stanmer House at 10:30 am - no booking is required.
