    Desc: Greening the Cube: 100-Mile Housing: Directed by Tyler Austin Bradley. People have several needs. Food and water. Safety and security. Shelter. Taking a whole-systems approach, green-builders Sean Sands and Pete Matheson strive to integrate these considerations into the homes they build, low-cost dwellings that utilize both natural and waste-stream/reclaimed materials, homes that are designed for efficiency, simplicity and sustainability. Drawing inspiration from the seminal local-eating and local food tome 'The 100 Mile Diet,' a blueprint for '100 Mile Housing' begins to take shape, an approach to housing and lifestyles change that advocates local solutions and local empowerment for those interested not just in experimental building, but in building lives and communities that can be sustained in perpetuity.
