In 2003, husband-and-wife architects Jeeth and Natasha Iype, working with Stanley George, a civil engineer, designed the Good Earth Orchard homes. Each of the 60 projected houses, now in various stages of construction, will feature slate and wood left in a natural state, without toxic waxes and finishes. Sewage will be treated in tanks that process waste without harmful chemicals. Household water will be heated by solar panels, which is expected to reduce electricity use\u2013and electricity bills by 30%. And when ever possible, local building materials are used, which reduces the need for gas guzzling trucks to transport things from far away.But the subtlest eco-friendly feature may be the verandahs that open from each house onto a large, grassy courtyard shared by the entire community. The hope is that the shared space will encourage shared environmental awareness.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><style type=\"text\/css\">.fusion-body .fusion-builder-column-4{width:83.333333333333%

You have to convince a group of individuals to buy into the same ideologies.\u201dMost Indians still live with several generations in a single home. But as the country grows richer, a burgeoning middle class is moving into western style single-family homes, which use more energy and resources per family. The GoodEarth team is try to provide India\u2019s elite with green homes that meet their rising standards but provide space that is still in some ways shared. \u201d Communities make sense in India,
