A new way of 'burial' - human composting

Marianne72

I read about this a few minutes ago. Human composting is a new concept, a natural way for 'disposal,' and far 'greener' than cremation or burial.

What do you think? It would also save relatives a shed load of money - how can anyone afford £thousands for traditional burials.

  • I can’t open the link but if this is what I think it is I’m all for it.

    Some ancient traditions make much more sense where we are laid on the land and the animals are allowed to eat us. 

    The thought of wildlife being nourished by me when I’m gone would give me a huge source of satisfaction.

    Sorry if this offends anyone but it is my belief that I no longer inhabit the body I’ve been using when I die maybe this is why I find this process so acceptable and appealing.
