10 Basic Common Examples of Hybrid Sustainable Recycling Techniques Cont.~
"One mans trash is another mans treasure." - Hector Urquhart - 1860?
As previously stated in our last page, all Hybrid Sustainability Techniques are dictated by the goal or purpose combined with best renewable supply of appropriate available material for y(our) budget, environment, household and community, conservation of resources, health, project and/or area... Keeping this, along with all the Keys and Rules of Holistic Hybrid Sustainability we have discussed in mind, the Examples and Techniques that follow are some that I believe to be some of the best Alternative Materials and Processes that I am aware of, have some experience with and could possibly offer.

10 ~ Basic Common Techniques of Utilizing Recycled Paper

You can not tell me that you aren't just blown away by some of the examples and Artisan usage of recycled paper in the art of construction above. Common Techniques from the Arts of Origami, Geometry, Sculpture and Paper Mache' applied to Masonry Techniques; seen in the building blocks and Paper Crete. At the same time, we can also see the Tree and the Techniques of Log Construction applied in some. Again, the uses seem almost limitless.
The interior wall of books is a perfect idea for any Office, Library, Play Room or Child's room and I hate to say it; but books are going into landfills every day.
Your Bed Room or Guest Room might just be a perfect place for a wall of Romance Novels.
I especially love the Tree Troll sculpture above {again these images are not mine and I claim no responsibility for them or the work} and I actually look forward to creative projects such as that.
While Paper may make for a source of Insulation; it is probably not the best source Insulation or of Thermal Energy of those listed with-in these pages. Although in some cases, some insulation is better than none and depending on the project and your budget, it just might be the perfect alternative. For example, You need to build a Temporary Structure like a Flood Wall, Fence or Public Shelter for a major event. Then recycled paper blocks might just be the ticket!
Not saying, that Paper Crete is not durable and long lasting when combined with Artisan Masonry or Adobe Techniques. It can also be sealed... Yet, paper which is mostly wood is known to be susceptible to fire, moisture and to contain acids which can make it break down over time.
So if you do not want your house or structure to be susceptible to decay, fire, maintenance, moisture, mold or even termites... Then you might take that all into consideration.
Though it being susceptible to moisture could be a good thing if you need to build a temporary secondary Flood Wall in my opinion. Though I must admit this is just a Theory of mine at this point, as paper being made of wood could possibly float away? Depending on how things are constructed...
Again, we must consider the supply while considering the best material for our intended purpose or goal along with climate and location... And again, while considering our design for accomplishing our goal or purpose.
When it comes down to Holistic Healthy long lasting choices in Alternative Natural Materials in Blown Insulation for attics, spaces and walls,... As, I may have already said, I myself would prefer to work with and do recommend Hemp. Yet, I do admit it is a more costly project at this point; though it can be considered an investment in your or your families good health in the long run.
Fact is, Hemp/Cannabis/Marijuana = Cannabis Sativa L same plant, was once a primary source of paper and it was prohibited in the first place because William Randolf Hearst owned a bunch acres of trees along with a bunch of News Papers and had no ethics as a result of his greed and ego so he slanted the News and created Marijuana Madness Propaganda in order to corner the market for personal profit. When if in reality, if the News cared about the truth, you, us, our planet and families.... Government(s), Priorities,... Hemp should have replaced wood paper completely years ago or wood paper would have never become an industry to begin with. Saving Trees!
Ever heard the Proverb?

Ever heard the Proverb?
"Early to bed early to rise makes a man healthy, wealthy and wise."
The point is, that wise men {which includes wo(men)} take care of themselves and the result is = they are healthy and the result of that is = they are wealthy.
Just a thought, while thinking on investing in ones own well being... So if you having a hard time with justifying investing in your or your families health? Well the above is a good reason why you need to.
