Lovelovinglove, Inc. to speak at the Red Dish Cafe

Written by , Posted in Events, Living

LoveLovingLove, Inc. is developing an Earthship in West Philadelphia. The vacant lot at 675 N. 41st St. will host a house built completely from recycled materials that generates its own electricity from renewable energy sources, runs its own water collected from cisterns on the roof and filters to pump through the building, grows its own food sources, stabilizes its internal climate by thermal mass and manages its own sewage to use for food production with toilets flushed by undrinkable used water collected from the building’s showers and sinks. LoveLovingLove, Inc. is trying to heal impoverished communities with holistic health education. Members will be speaking about this project on Thursday from 7-8 p.m. at the Rad Dish Café in Ritter Hall as part of Spring 2015 Campus Sustainability Week.
