[Artemisia] Upraising Uprising Walls

The straw needs to be steeped in calcium carbonate -- readily availabe nowadays, a little tough, perhaps without transportation from a sea coast.

Hi Luveday,

The actual flamable material is completely encased in concrete, so the fire hazard should be completely eliminated.  At least that's what it looks like to me.  More research is necessary, but the folks down the road have created a wall already, so I hope to capitalize on their research and experience.

Maybe a pipedream, but kinda fun!
