I heard the story on NPR today about all the surplus equipment and supplies, including tons of concrete barriers that will be left behind as we start to withdraw troops.
One idea I had was to use the concrete barriers as foundations for houses to leave the Iraqis, instead of a mountain of trash.
The standard road barrier is an excellent foundation block and shipping containers can be used as houses with just a few modifications.
Shipping containers must be the perfect form of housing. If we want to move, we just pack everything inside, send it off, unpack it and move in.
Here are the plans for a 60 square meter house that has been modified to meet the climate in the desert.
