Recycled Housing

This is an interesting article talking about how in Haiti they are solving their housing problem by using old tires and other recycled objects such as bottles. These homes use solar energy for power and collect rain water. This is a really interesting way of helping Haiti recover and for many gives quite an improvement from living in a tent. Is there any way we could learn some lessons from this with our housing problems?
