Answer 2

yes human beings can handle anything (it y we are top of the food chain)

and if an dirt house is made properly it can be much better than most house when it comes down to the temperter (four feet under goud the ground stays a steady 60 degres all year long so u can make a confertible home out of dirt but i personaly would not want to live in one (maby berary a real house but not jest dirt walls)

but yes ppl can live in a dirt house (its better than nothing) but there are problems with doing this such as if the dirt is bad it can make it a weack house and also cary desiges (in bad types of dirt)
