How To Make Homelessness An Ancient Concept Using Hemp & Drone Based Printing

Homelessness in this, the Information Age, is an international disgrace. With over a billion people dealing with inadequate or no housing on Earth, this is an issue that it is imperative that we solve now, especially in the face of what the United Nations now calls "global boiling". 

Print Solutions: Hemp, Drones & Construction Printing 
Ending Homelessness by Design

Simply printing ample, affordable to the point of operational on line businesses to solve the economic source of homelessness, we can end homelessness by creating beautiful, ample housing that people can afford or have afforded for them managed by A.I.

By combining hemp-based sustainable materials, cutting-edge 3D printing (drone-based printing in the near future) and responsible use of public lands, we can build safe, affordable, eco-friendly housing for everyone. It’s time to reimagine what’s possible — and build / print a wonderful world where “home” is a right, not a luxury.

Every human deserves a safe, comfortable home. Yet, just in the USA, one of the richest countries on earth, hundreds of thousands of Americans lack a safe roof over their head. Meanwhile, the federal government owns hundreds of millions of acres of under-used or idle land. Title V says they should use it. "The federal government owns roughly 640 million acres, more than a quarter of the land in the United States." according to a report by the Congressional Research Service.

What would happen if we brought together sustainable materials i.e. hemp, that are light weight and easy to reproduce, cutting-edge printing technology, and the vast resource of public land — not to profit, but to build dignity, shelter, and community? I believe we stand at the threshold of a revolution. A “home-printing” revolution.

Why We Must Rethink How We Build

Traditional housing — timber-framed suburbs, concrete apartments, mass-produced tract homes — has many flaws. Construction is slow, expensive, resource-intensive, and often environmentally harmful. For many, the cost of shelter has become a burden too heavy to bear. And yet there is land unused, potential wasted, opportunities unfulfilled. We can work with nature to solve our housing crisis.

We don’t need more talk. We need action. We need a building method so fast, so flexible, so sustainable it can deliver homes — at scale, on demand, nationwide.

That’s where additive manufacturing (3D, 4D, 5D, laser... printing) meets sustainable bio-materials meets public-land opportunity.

Hemp + 3D Printing + Public Land = A Real Plan

  • Sustainable, carbon-smart materials: Materials like Hempcrete — made from hemp fiber, lime, and water — offer a renewable alternative to concrete. Light, breathable, pest-resistant, mold-resistant, and insulating, hempcrete homes stay comfortable and energy-efficient throughout the seasons. 

  • Affordable, efficient, rapid construction: Research now shows that 3D-printed hempcrete homes — using additive construction techniques — can dramatically lower carbon footprints, reduce resource waste, and speed up build times. 

  • A massive land resource: The U.S. federal government owns roughly 640 million acres — about 28 % of the country’s land area.  If even a fraction of that land were repurposed, it could supply space for tens of thousands — or hundreds of thousands — of new homes.

  • It would not take a lot of land when printing cities. For example, Manhattan is about 25 square miles with a 2019 population of 1.5 million. Printing tall buildings maximizes living space while providing additional conveniences. I lived and worked in NYC for 25 years, lived there for 15 of those enjoying my wonderful life. 

Put simply: by combining hemp-derived sustainable building materials, modern 3D printing technologies and responsible use of public lands — we have a real, achievable path to building affordable, eco-friendly housing at scale.

With military precision, lead by a UN coordinated veteran's based crew, the mission to make homelessness, hunger, thirst and energy bills ancient concepts can rapidly become a dream achieved. The environmentally conscious structures in addition to meeting housing needs, can have a greenhouse room as a food back-up source, water from air panels and free energy (magnetic and solar) systems printed into the designs. 

Yes — Let’s Dream Bigger: Drones, Laser-Print Heads, Hemp Powder


Some may call this vision futuristic. The first typewriter came into my life when I was 6 years old. It was a Christmas present, a prayer tool sometimes and sometimes a jazz instrument. I’ve witnessed technology leap forward — from typewriter ribbons to dot-matrix to laser printers, black and white to color printing to networked computers, each step appreciated and celebrated. I can't wait until computer screens are visual in 3d like the advertising billboards.We can even do an interior meditation room with 3d screens on the wall. Oh, the vista is wide.

I believe the next leap is possible: in addition to hempcrete, hemp plastics and graphene, we can develop hemp-derived printing powders — refined, fortified, stable. light enough for aerial deposition or drone-based laser printing systems, yet strong enough to compose walls, shelters, entire housing units.

Imagine drones, equipped with laser-print heads or specialized nozzles, flying above empty lots on public lands, printing homes layer by layer, in hours or days instead of weeks or months. Imagine turning “homelessness” from a longstanding national tragedy into an outdated concept, something we resolved, collectively, through design, technology, compassion and will.

Yes, there are challenges. Just remember, every crisis carries with it an opportunity of equal or greater benefit. This is not the exception to that reality. 

Material science, engineering, zoning, regulation, logistics...we can overcome. Every great leap in human history began with relentlessly daring to imagine differently.


A Call to Industry, Advocates, Builders, and Policymakers

I urge everyone reading this, whether you command the tools, manage the land, shape the laws, or carry a vision to consider the following:

  • Invest boldly in research and development of hemp-based printing powders or bio-composites optimized for 3D printing and other modern forms to automate construction, like Aerial Additive Manufacturing including exploration of aerial deployment, drone-assisted printing, and hybrid printing technologies.

  • Partner with government and public-land managers to identify federal parcels, especially under-utilized, surplus, or low-value-for-extraction lands that could be repurposed, leased, or developed under housing-first, low-cost, sustainable mandates.

  • Prioritize affordability, dignity, and accessibility: ensure new homes are available to those most in need, veterans, the unhoused, marginalized, working poor, with energy-efficient, climate-resilient design.

  • Think beyond just housing - build communities: include infrastructure and social support, not just houses but homes with dignity.

  • Challenge the status quo: demand innovations not just for luxury or profit, but for justice, equity, humanity. Use technology to uplift, not to commodify, to enrich the quality of life, removing many sources of stress.

Conclusion: A New Birthright — Home for Every Human

We are builders, dreamers, caretakers of this planet and its people. 

For us to achieve Peace On Earth, we must understand that a home is not a privilege but a right; that the Earth does not belong to profiteers alone, though there is plenty of room for them to expand their profits - old rectangle structures do not stand up well to climate crisis conditions. Every human deserves shelter, safety, dignity and we can add peace of mind that only a good home can deliver.

Explore hemp-based printing. Push for legislative reform on public-land use. Fund pilot projects. Demand that innovation serve those who need it most.

Because the technology is no longer the question. The will must be.

Print a New World, One based on truth, justice and compassion for all, not just once or twice, but at the scale of millions of homes, millions of lives restored, millions of futures renewed. Every human with an A.I. business agent can provide on line incomes sufficent to take care of at least basic human needs, with income amplification based on competent human participation. 'The more you work on the web, the more the web can work for you,' Together, we can not only overcome - we can thrive! 

Let me know in the comments below what you think of this idea and ways to implement it. As a self financed activist since 1984, I could do with some help implementing this idea internationally.

Tubman Mission - Let's make homelessness an ancient concept by printing ample housing

Tubman Mission  - Audio of AI generated evaluation link to the left.

Vice President Kamala Harris said
 3 million new homes

To achieve that goal
let's print ample, environmentally conscious housing
on unused and underused USA federal land.

Blessed solutions are everywhere! Let's use them wisely.

We begin this blog post with logic
concerning creating 3 million homes. 

A. 1,000,000 people per 25 square miles
i.e. Manhattan =

B. 3,000,000 homes on 75 square miles +

C.  25 square miles for infrastructure =

3,000,000 homes/apartments on 100 square miles of government land.

The island of Manhattan in New York City is about 25 square miles. It houses a bit over a million people. In the last century I was graced to live in New York City for 25 years, 15 of those years in what felt like the center of of universe, Manhattan. Therefore, I can testify with witnesses to one can be happy living in that dense of a population. Of course for mental health reasons it could be 200 square miles.  

We can print ample housing. Just here in Cochise County, Arizona, the government owns 3,000 square miles, almost half of the land in this south east corner of the state. If the federal government would make available just 100 square miles for the construction printing industry to print the required 3,000,000 homes out of geopolymers, a major step will be taken to remove the dangers of homelessness, like it being illegal to vote while homeless, without an address. 

The Tubman Mission, a project of Computer Underground Railroad Enterprises (CURE), is working to eradicate homelessness and inadequate housing by combining effective, cutting-edge solutions and construction printing technologies

The goal is to make homelessness, inadequate housing, hunger, thirst and energy bills ancient concepts by printing ample, safe affordable housing using primarily geopolymers - modern vertical, hydroponic or aquaponic indoors greenhouse farming - atmospheric water generators and dual free, safe & clean energy systems printed into structures.

We are developing systems to revolutionize the way structures and infrastructures are created by blending 

1. Sustainable materials like hemp, clay and other geopolymers 

2. Clean, safe energy systems,
i.e. magnetic, solar, hydro, geothermal, wind, biofuels...

3. Home based vertical greenhouse room 

4. Dome or cylinder shaped structures to reduce wind damage 

5. Waterproof up to the roof with an ABS hemp plastic layer
(sealable with a submarine style air system in the print) 

6. Faraday cage printed into the structure's walls
to reduce
electro magnetic radiation exposure 

7. Water-from-air innovations and 

8. Hydreva magnetic water cleaning systems 

As we automate construction, we are creating resilient, safe, self-sufficient and affordable housing solutions for those who need them most, all of us. 

With the reality of our climate emergency that is creating millions of climate crisis refugees, it could be any one of us at any time in need of safe, strong quality housing. As we are learning, surprise tsunamis, weather events nor wildfires check a person's bank account when storming, flooding or burning through.  

Also, since CURE trained over 3,000 people how to use a PC, we further recommend home based cyber business empowerment to make homes financially self sufficient too.

A vision: It's the year 2052. The founder is 100 years old. A young person approaches her with a question.

"Is it true there was a time when some people did not have a place to live, food to eat, water to drink and they had to pay for energy that was hurting the planet?"

"Yes dear" was the response. "But that was a long time ago. The last Roaring 20's was so loud because of the internet and all, the vibrations blew the stupid away. We did the right thing, as will you."

Though written from a USA perspective, these ideas are written for all, anywhere the information can improve the quality of lives.

Please post in the comments below what you think of this mission &/or how we can work together to achieve mission accomplished. The Action Plan for the Tubman Mission is posted as a Flipbook below followed by an AI Mission Summary. 

LET'S PRINT. 

1. What is the Tubman Mission?


The Tubman Mission is a project by Computer Underground Railroad Enterprises (CURE), a non-profit organization dedicated to using innovative technology to address societal challenges. This mission leverages advanced 3D printing techniques and sustainable materials like hempcrete to create environmentally conscious, self-sufficient housing solutions, aiming to end homelessness and address the housing crisis.


2. What makes the Tubman Mission's approach to housing unique?


The Tubman Mission combines several key elements to create a truly innovative and sustainable housing model:

  • 3D Printing Technology: Construction 3D printing significantly reduces build times and labor costs compared to traditional methods, making housing production faster and more affordable.
  • Geopolymers like Hempcrete: Utilizing sustainable, locally sourced materials like hempcrete, which is stronger than concrete and offers superior insulation and fire resistance, creates durable and environmentally friendly homes.
  • Sustainable Design: Dome-shaped structures minimize wind damage, while a hemp plastic layer ensures waterproofing up to the roof, enhancing resilience against natural disasters.
  • Integrated Sustainability Features: Each home incorporates a hydroponic vertical greenhouse room for food production, clean energy systems (like magnetic energy) for energy independence, and atmospheric water generators for clean water access.

3. How will the Tubman Mission benefit the environment?


The Tubman Mission’s approach to housing has numerous environmental benefits:

  • Reduced Carbon Footprint: Using hempcrete, a carbon-negative material, and clean energy systems significantly reduces the environmental impact of construction and living.
  • Sustainable Materials: Hempcrete is a renewable resource that grows quickly, absorbs CO2 during its growth cycle, and requires less energy to process compared to traditional building materials.
  • Water Conservation: Atmospheric water generators provide a sustainable and independent water source, reducing reliance on traditional water systems and promoting water conservation.
  • Reduced Waste: 3D printing minimizes construction waste, and the use of sustainable materials further reduces the overall environmental impact of the project.

4. How does the Tubman Mission address homelessness and the housing crisis?


The Tubman Mission tackles these issues through:

  • Affordability: 3D printing and sustainable materials dramatically lower construction costs, making homes more affordable and accessible to low-income individuals and families.
  • Scalability: The technology allows for rapid and efficient production of homes, enabling the construction of large-scale housing projects to address the needs of a growing homeless population.
  • Community Integration: The project plans to create self-sufficient communities with integrated resources like greenhouses and community centers, fostering a sense of belonging and support.

5. What is the role of magnetic energy in the Tubman Mission?


Magnetic energy generators will be integrated into the homes to provide a clean, renewable, and free energy source. This technology harnesses the power of magnetism to produce electricity without emissions, offering residents energy independence and significantly reducing energy costs.


6. How will the Tubman Mission ensure access to clean water?


The project plans to integrate atmospheric water generators, also known as “water from air” towers and devices. These systems extract clean, drinkable water from the air through condensation, providing a reliable and sustainable water source even in arid climates.


7. What are the long-term goals of the Tubman Mission?


The Tubman Mission aims to:

  • Expand Nationwide: Scale operations to build sustainable communities across the U.S., focusing on areas with high homelessness rates and those affected by the climate crisis.
  • International Expansion: Provide innovative housing solutions globally, particularly in developing regions and areas experiencing humanitarian crises.
  • Infrastructure Development: Utilize 3D printing technology to build sustainable infrastructure projects like roads, bridges, and public buildings, contributing to a greener and more resilient future.

8. How can I support the Tubman Mission?


There are several ways to get involved:

  • Donations: Financial contributions directly support the project's development and expansion.
  • Partnerships: Collaboration with organizations and businesses aligned with the mission can provide valuable resources and expertise.
  • Volunteer: Offer your time and skills to support various aspects of the project, from construction to community outreach.
  • Advocacy: Spread awareness about the Tubman Mission and its innovative approach to solving homelessness and housing challenges.

CURE - Climate Migration - Housing, Food and Water Solutions

To quickly address climate migration 
we must implement a three tier 3d+ printing strategy, 

1. Print ample, environmentally conscious 
structures and infrastructure 
2. Print and operate abundant greenhouses 
and phytoremediation programs 
3. Print water from air towers & devices

Climate crisis is happening now. 


We must overcome our problems concerning the economic, weather, drought, pandemics, violence, hunger, drug addictions and homelessness situations. 

Here's a look at downtown Phoenix, Arizona's homeless crisis.


Homelessness. Let’s start there. 

A place to live, clean water to drink... it's time to stop pretending not to know what's going on and that we have the ability to fix this. 

Did you know that the world’s already experiencing what Columbia University calls Climate Migration: An Impending Global Challenge?” 

The UN is saying “All of these circumstances - conflict, natural disasters, and climate change - pose enormous challenges for the international humanitarian community.” 

As the ocean level rises, coastal residents are migrating inland. Today’s fortune can be rendered worthless in the blink of a market, currency, health crisis or the loss of a password.

According to climate.govIn the United States, almost 30% of the population lives in relatively high population-density coastal areas.” 

Here's a deeper look at rising ocean levels.


Now is a good time to implement solutions.

Arizona is one of the places climate emergency refugees are already moving to. Since 2016 just Maricopa County's homeless population has nearly tripled.  Habitat For Humanity 3D printed its first house in Tempe recently. It’s already sold. 

Meet the new home owners.


We must adjust our thinking and tools. LET’S PRINT SOLUTIONS!

Printing housing is fast and economical. With ever greater self-sufficient, environmentally conscious design possibilities, we can build enough housing, greenhouses and water sources.

This radical change in construction techniques was covered on CBS Sunday Morning.


Our CURE Headquarters is on 10 acres in Cochise County, McNeal, Arizona, about 4,300 feet above sea level. We recently installed a new agricultural water pump.

Here's a drone shot of the property.


In response to the climate migration crisis, our multisolving approach includes fixing a local dam, opening modern greenhouse farms plus 3D printing cities. We’re working to buy properties and print water from air, towers, nets and devices.

Here's a great example of water from air, atmospheric water generation technique invented and used by Moses West who freely gives water to crisis areas through his Moses West Foundation

This leg of the journey involves earning, a $2.5 million grant to build a commercial greenhouse here plus, buy a 3D house printer for training and future mission-funding.
