Building with Awareness
While looking around at Charmaine Taylor’s The Dirt Cheap Builder Catalog, I found a video that looked good.

Here’s a bit snipped from their site:www.buildingwithawareness.com

Building with Awareness
A how-to and inspirational DVD video and web site featuring hybrid straw bale and adobe house design and construction, green building materials for the home, passive solar, rainwater cisterns, earth plasters, photovoltaics, aesthetics, and more. Follow the construction of one house, from start to finish, and learn how natural building materials like straw and mud can work together with high-tech elements like a photovoltaic system to create a living environment that is both beautiful and energy-efficient.

Update: 1 /22/2006

This is a very well made documentary.
I would reccomend it to anyone interested in learning about alternatives to todays construction methods.
