If we used natural stones in combination of bricks and cemented them together for building buildings would?

that also help to environment?


Bricks and cement requires chemicals to make and besides there is much rocks that are just lying around.


I'm saying gather every rock because if all the rock barriers from the lake shores, sea shores and ocean shores were taken away then we would have floods.


I'm rocks found in garden centres.


If they were used then less cement would used to make bricks.


What are your thoughts?

Bricks require no chemicals. They're just clay and sand.





Cement is just rocks made into a powder with water and sand added to form man made rocks. Concrete is cement with rocks (aggregate) added.

Reply:Here in North Carolina, we only have rocks in the western third of our state. What we have plenty of is clay for bricks. So it's a choice between using local materials, or quarries in the west with rock transported by truck across the state....the more environmentally friendly choice for me is brick.





If you have local stone, use it!
