A former UN worker and prominent architect, Johan van Lengen has seen firsthand the desperate need for a "greener" approach to housing in impoverished tropical climates. This comprehensive book clearly explains every aspect of this endeavor, includingdesign (siting, orientation, climate consideration), materials (sisal, cactus, bamboo, earth), and implementation. The author emphasizes throughout the book what is inexpensive and sustainable. Included are sections discussing urban planning, small-scale energy production, cleaning and storing drinking water, and dealing with septic waste, and all information is applied to three distinct tropical regions: humid areas, temporate areas, and desert climates. Hundreds of explanatory drawings by van Lengen allow even novice builders to get started."Binding Type: Paperback

Great Product for Hard Water
Style: Shampoo
We have hard water and just after a week of using this I can already tell a difference, not only that but I've been using it on my upper arms, shoulders and neck and my keratosis pilaris is clearing up and my skin is smooth. Great product, happy I found it.
