Ecological Bricks

Click on Picture for link to URL location of Original Picture


Cement Bricks are made out of gravel and cement powder. My idea is to replace the gravel by chopping up trash that can't or no longer can be recycled, to make ecological bricks. You might be aware of the trash problem related to old tires... So far there are very few option as to what can be done with them, and their amount increases ceaselessly. They are the perfect example of trash that is hard to recycle... Using them to replace the gravel in my ecological bricks, can not only be ideal to make them, but I also wonder if they would increase the shock resistance of a brick, as well as their insolating capacity... Ecological bricks would also probably be cheaper than your normal bricks... Also, plastics are a better insolators than stone or other Natural fibers.
