Judith , Thankyou for the link about green cement - certainly there will be alternatives to portland cement in our near future. Eight years ago , after I had made my first five thousand papercrete blocks , I was not very happy with what I was producing. My blocks were weak and dusty . Since I had an investment in Evesgarden.org , it was important to make something more durable . I read an article about green cemnt that convinced me there would be an alternative coming , and that I should concern myself with the use of the material and not just how little cement I could use . I began to double , even triple my use of cement. = Clyde
