You are paying for heat, water, insulation, and shelter that your great-grandparents got for free.
This channel documents the building techniques that work, techniques that have been standing for centuries, confirmed by Oak Ridge National Lab and university research programs, and systematically excluded from the codes and mortgage standards that govern what you are allowed to build.
The R-value test was designed by the company that sells fiberglass insulation. The ICC, the private nonprofit that writes your building code, is funded by the manufacturers whose products it mandates. The FHA minimum property standards that eliminated adobe, cob, and straw bale from the American mainstream were never voted on by the public.
This is not opinion. It is public record.
Each video ends with where the legal pathway still exists and exactly what it costs to build.
