Nice article on fire-resilient earth block construction. A sustainable and affordable homebuilding solution for fire-prone zones and beyond. bbc.com/future/article…

The LA wildfires have reduced entire communities to ash, prompting some of those who lost their homes to vow to rebuild in the same spot they called home. But destruction at this scale will be no easy feat to clear or reconstruct, experts told ABC News News. abcnews.link/sD807Zw
