BuildWell Source is a project of the Ecological Building Network we created in response to large and growing need for people throughout the world to access the information they need in order to have a positive impact on low-carbon building.
The BuildWell Source is an online, user-built library of low-carbon building. We built it so you could more easily find out about alternatives like straw bales, adobe, shipping containers, and many other types of free or inexpensive materials that have no commercial sponsor. We have found that many materials and systems get little promotion or study in mainstream circles. Collecting the information tucked away in the hard drives of countless researchers, building professionals, and others throughout the world constitutes an unlimited body of knowledge - if only it were accessible.
