052 - Reclaiming Building Materials (Salvaging our History)

In a world that is running out of everything, he with the most garbage wins.  Modern building techniques normally focus on reducing the amount of time required to install - rather than the quality of the materials used.  Old buildings, that are usually crushed and thrown in the landfill are an amazing source of high quality building materials.  When a building is lost, the stories of our past are lost with it.  Join Annie and Jay Warmke of Blue Rock Station for a discussion of the realities of sustainable living.
