Davie Philips of Cultivate on Ireland’s eco-village

The focus of this eco tour video-pod is on the Ecovillage, a learning center for sustainability. The Ecovillage is a living workshop environment where you can learn organic food production, natural building, permaculture and how to create and live in harmony within the means of nature. This video pod is an educated walkthrough intended to create a window into some of these eco methodologies and green technologies as well as thoughts and ideas by David regarding the creation of an ecovillage and the need to scale down our wants and needs. David Shayler (born 24 December 1965) is a British journalist, former MI5 officer. Hes blown the lid on 7/7 & 911 inside job, diana assasination, dirty tricks of the corporate global money makers and anyone whos into the dark side. we spent the day with david in may 2010 at his eco village in london england (yes london!) to ask questions and ponder the meaning of things to come for our world. Controy to what some may say davids not a mentalist, nor a freak, infact hes the british answer to timothy leary, warm, gentle, open minded, well read and most of a advocate for the human species to MOVE FORWARD and EVOLVE both spirtiually and in a social organisational sense, NO MONEY NO OIL NO WAR NO HUNGER I bet you cannot imagine those things happening….?

www.permies.com Visting the all cob ecovillage “cobville” in coquille, oregon. Including the tour guide Ianto Evans, author of “The Hand Sculpted House” – home of the “cob cottage company”. I have never seen so much cob before. Cob homes. Cob ovens. Standalone cob walls. Rocket mass heaters made from cob. Cob benches for sitting and cob workbenches. Cob art. Cob floors. Cob beds. This part of the tour shows off about eight cob homes and the second part shows about four more. One eco building has a cob rumford fireplace that is clear to see. Another has a cob rumford fireplace – but the video does not show it clearly. The video whizzes by a cob oven at one point. Lots of green roofs. There is a good example of a heat trap. Permaculture courses are taught here.

John Talbott, a pioneer of ecological and sustainable building talks about how he sees the Findhorn Ecovillage as a model for human settlements in the 21st century and beyond.
