Garbage Warrior (2007)
Garbage Warrior tells the epic story of maverick architect Michael Reynolds, his crew of renegade house builders from New Mexico and their fight to introduce radically different ways of living.
By Anonymous (IMDB): Imagine a home that heats itself, that provides its own water, hat grows its own food. Imagine that it needs no expensive technology, that it recycles its own waste, that it has its own power source. And now imagine that it can be built anywhere, by anyone, out of the things society throws away. Thirty years ago, architect Michael Reynolds imagined just such a home – then set out to build it. A visionary in the classic American mode, Reynolds has been fighting ever since to bring his concept to the public.
He believes that in an age of ecological instability and impending natural disaster, his buildings can – and will – change the way we live. Shot over three years in the USA, India and Mexico, Garbage Warrior is a feature-length documentary film telling the epic story of maverick architect Michael Reynolds, his crew of renegade house builders from New Mexico, and their fight to introduce radically different ways of living. A snapshot of contemporary geo-politics and an inspirational tale of triumph over bureaucracy, Garbage Warrior is above all an intimate portrait of an extraordinary individual and his dream of changing the world.

Bureaucracy sucks!
Simply great! True inspiring!!!
greenage !!! says hi to all garbage warriors in the world!!!!!!
Excellent documentary! Thanks a lot for posting this!!!! :) Respect to all
those who try to change things for better even though they face endless and
daunting bureaucracy. Or worse.
Great watch…. Just the way we need to continue to think, to move forward
in a self sustaining lifestyle. The hows, the whys and the whens…
Great work and documentary until the end. It turned into an Establishment
propaganda film. Global Warming is nonsense, so it had to be changed to
Climate Change. The root causes for “Climate Change” is the suns activity,
chemical spraying, and high voltage weather engineering as in HAARP. Make
no mistake. The same people that cried global warming and now climate
change are the ones who want to see chaotic weather, in hopes that a
“global” solution I.E. NWO can be enforced upon all people.
i agree with your words. i think this guy just didn’t know that yet. the
film was released in 2007. I was worried about global warming in 2007, now
I know better
but ya, really…the court stuff was boring and outdated propaganda. i
wanted to see how to make, theories behind, these buildings. does
illustrate how completely lame politics are. dang, are they lame
So when was the last time you had your meds changed. You might want to look
into that soon.
BEST!!! Thank you!! Favorited and recommend!
I love earthships…keep creating!
No meds needed, I have always been way ahead of those like you. I never met
a dupe who didn’t come to my thinking… “EVENTUALLY.” Correction however:
The same people that have SPREAD THE THE NONSENSE OF MAN MADE CO2/global
warming so PEOPLE LIKE YOU TO CRY ABOUT, and now climate change are the
ones who want to see chaotic weather, in hopes that a “global” solution
I.E. NWO can be enforced upon all people.
Yes yes yes and the mother ship will return soon and all that too.
That is good to hear… you care enough to think about what the
Establishment media tries to sell us, enough to check the facts. Good on
you! ~Cheers
Well done, Mike and your team on all your hard work and for never losing
sight of your dream to make the world a better place one earth rammed tyre
at a time. Respect!!! HUGS
This is the future, and i am working on a project that in time wil give me
this freedom in life
put in on blog, proven to be skyrocketing with interest, respect Mike
you dont need to do anything to save yourself from the earth being damaged,
it will take at least a few decades still before any significant damage is
done if any, actually significant damage has started already, natural
disasters are much more frequent and powerful than they used to be, still
there is only 1 thing that can really save u & that is the way, the truth &
the life
we cant save ourselves but we do need to take better care of this planet, i
think if people are so focused on capitalism, then at least develop
renewable clean energy technology
awesome!!!
Fucking amazing. It just shows, humans need some sort of major catastrophic
natural event to happen for us to open our fucking eyes and see what is
happening to our planet and to actually induce change.
I would give anything to live a life style like Mike and his mates.
Are there any stenches coming from the recyclable materials used?
I don’t see it as radical, just that the norm has drifted away from
sensibility.
Who’s the musician at 34:04???
This man deserves the Nobel Prize!!
We The People must serve them (the government “officials”) Notice to Vacate
and Throw the Bums OUT!
This is very cool and inspiring. I admire those who actively change the
world around themselves for the betterment of man and earth.
SO grateful for this man and his perscistance
what is earthship biotecture & why are world leaders not promoting the
reality of:
homes that …
• Heat and cool themselves naturally via solar/thermal dynamics
• Collect their own power from the sun and wind
• Harvest their own water from rain and snow melt
• Contain and treat their own sewage on site
• Produce a significant amount of food
• Are constructed using the byproducts of modern society like cans,
bottles and tires.
World leaders are not promoting earthship living because *______*.
Please watch – Garbage Warrior: Full Length Documentary – for in depth
overview of the development of earthship living.
impresive…
thanks for posting!!
Does anybody know what is the best book to become acquainted with the
Earthship building techniques? I had a quick look at Earthship vol 1, but
it seems it was published in 1990, so I am guessing there is a chance some
of the latest technological devolpments and findings would not be in it. Am
I wrong?
Nobel Peace Prize ? Yes.
Great ideas, thanks for sharing!

I often site this work as an example of how ridiculous and oppressive our
system has come and how government regulation actually stands in the way of
clean living.
I love this documentary; I’ve watched, and rewatched, more times than I
care to admit.
