I agree in the general sense, yes, in a practical sense, no.
If it won't do the job properly, and one has  the cement available 
then I would say use it. For me the real goal is combination of just 
needing to get a place to call home and  trying to do it with out 
putting a major burden on our planet or ourselves (pocket book 
included) I guess what I'm saying is we can reach for the goal of a 
reduction in the use of our planets resources without getting into 
the "Politically correct" game.
