Brazilian couple Luiz and Edna Toledo have a home made from rubbish, literally. Not content with building themselves a recycled mansion, the couple now plan to construct an entire community from waste.
With walls made of bottles and a roof of bamboo, Luiz and Edna's house cost a fraction of a normal building. And now an ecologically sustainable village is on the drawing board. "It's definitely ecologically and economically sound, I think it's fantastic. This house is life", says local Government architect Laura. Could this be an alternative to Brazil's disease-ridden favelas?

I want to meet this man and learn from him. He is so ahead of governments and of "modern society"s thinking". I am so motivated to take a trip to Brazil.

This man is exceptional!! It's amazing that he took on a problem of this magnitude and solved it on a small local scale. He's going to change the lives of these people and I hope that causes a ripple effect that will help change even more. Big change comes with small steps! Great job dude!

Amazing what a family is capable of doing with what even myself calls rubbish. So inspirational I am sharing this to people I know and would love for this man to make more content to help more people see his genius.
