Sustainable Comfort: Green, Off-the-Grid Earthship
Earth Day officially comes but once a year but at Monte Kochs Montana home, the spirit of Earth Day is generated 24/7/365. North of Big Timber, on 64 acres of pristine land, Koch is putting the finishing touches on his dream dwelling. His dream, however, was to live in a spacious, comfortable home that was off the power grid.
Originally, he was planning a log home. Then wildfires in his area and the viewing of a documentary film entitled Garbage Warrior about sustainable living biotect Michael Reynolds inspired Koch to take his homebuilding idea in a new direction. I can honestly say that film changed my life, says Koch.
