Papercrete

Papercrete is a fairly new low cost mortar mix for making blocks, panels, poured walls, roofs, plasters, renders, pond liners, etc.

Papercrete uses mostly waste and recycled materials, and can include any of the following:

• paper
• wood chippings
• sawdust
• cement
• lime
• sand
• silt
• subsoil
• expanded polystyrene
• fibrous weed and plant material
• broken bricks, blocks, tiles, stone, etc
• ground brick, tile, glass, stone waste
• clinker, slag, etc

A good starting point, with lots of pretty pics is here:
