Bottle wall of an Earthship home,Taos,New Mexico,USA. Earthship buildings are a type of passive solar home,made of natural and recycled materials. Interior walls are often built of glass bottles embedded in concrete. Earthship homes are built to minimise environmental impact and to use local resources,such as sunlight.
