That being said, Soy in Brazil is known to cost deforestation of rainforest land. People should be aware that supporting Soy can mean supporting deforestation of rainforests, where rainforest and agriculture are in competition due to the pressures of a relentless economy. Unfortunately, Soy is missrepresented/greenwashed by less than accurate marketers. That being said, I think your product idea and execution overall is generally good, due to the re-use of containers. The most green friendly small home you can build is accomplished with locally sourced plant/wood, especially repurposed.
