Earthship greenhouse

Earthship greenhouse, what do you people think? Just fill some tires with dirt, or use earthbags for a thermal mass. Be sure to have the pipes in the back for air intake. Put plastic that is difficult to see through as the main barrier instead of glass. Have a second room in the back, but use a white barrier between the front and back. Reflect what light you can, but leave some light so you can see in the back. Grow some mushroom in the back, umm porcini, yes, porcini. The air will be dryer than normal because the water will drop in the pipes so you need to add humidity. Use the water off the roof for irrigation and adding humidity for mushrooms. The oxygen gets consumed by the mushrooms and CO2 gets moved via vents near the bottom of the wall to the front room. The plants in the front room use the CO2 and convert it to oxygen. Make solar chimneys on the top, use a charcoal filter.

Use soil, legumes, companion planting, and whatever dynamic accumulators that are necessary.

Note that I made no suggestions of anything illegal. I just simply posted on a forum about a greenhouse idea.
