More good press about the BLOCK Project! https://www.geekwire.com/.../how-climate-concerns-and.../
Did you know that BLOCK Homes are energy net positive? This means the homes' solar panels feed power back to the grid - usually to the homes of the hosts that share their property with The BLOCK Project.
Our BLOCK homes are built to be Living Building Challenge Certified, which includes net positive energy among other regenerative building aspects. In addition to being environmentally conscious and climate change resilient, we find it imperative for our homes to be healing spaces for people living outside and offset the negative impacts that buildings (generating 40% of global CO2 emissions) are responsible for - especially as environmental harm impacts marginalized and unhoused communities the most. Through the Living Building Challenge, BLOCK homes are built to heal people and the planet. We wish to model with our community what it means to build truly green and protect our future.
