I'm all for it. I'd like a tree or something like it planted above me.
I'm not gonna be embalmed like some necromancer's toy or quickly converted into CO2/CO and heat in a furnace. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: A lot of countries don't embalm. I used to work with a couple guys from Albania. One was at work when he got the call that his father died. At that point, he had about 24 hours to get back to Tirana if he wanted to see the body. Same thing when another guy's mother died. 24 hour viewing, then burial. Shitty thing when you live in the middle of the US and you need to get to Chicago, then Frankfurt or Geneva, and finally Tirana all in 24 hours with no notice. In the ground before the next sunset is a Muslim thing not based on refrigeration or embalming. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: I would do that. Other than my family having to haul away the compost. There already enough junk in the garage. Few people go visit the grave sites of the parents and grandparents anyways. If they do most no more the once a year How many people take can or even know where there great grandparents and beyond are buried? It’s an odd tradition we have. As long as it’s done respectfully I see no issues with continuing that circle of life |

I see what you guys are sayin. But the moment we as humans start looking at each other as nothing more than fertilizer.
When we stop respecting those that pass. We will stop respecting those that live. More so then we already do. I find it sad in a way. But leave it up to the socialist extremist party to even consider openly doing this. I mean after all. Was it not them that said, even after a child is born. The mother/parents should have the right to end the babies life. A set amount of time after birth. Just kill it if they decide they do not want it. We are regressing into animals. |

Personally I would go with a "sky burial" myself, but I don't think it is legal anywhere in the US.
BTW there is already something called "alkaline hydrolysis," that involves zero muss & fuss. In the end you end up with ~15lbs of non-toxic residue. |

Seems like a good way to spread prion diseases in humans if you use that compost for planting potable food.
Liberalism is already a mental disorder, so probably not a big concern if they get more diseases. |

honestly, no real problem with this. It was basically the Catholic standard for over 1000 years. The church required to be burred on hallowed ground. Well, there was a limited quantity of that, so the ground was dug up and reused. This aerated the ground, and the reuse kept the composting bacteria levels high. Pretty much nothing but bone would be left after a couple months - and the bones could be stored off site in catacombs. Of course the simpler solution would be to powder the bones and use as fertilizer - just like we already do for slaughter animals...

I've always said that there's no way we can continue to burry the dead, forever. Eventually we will run out of room.
Sooner or later, alternatives need to be found. |

If it is actually more efficient, it should be less expensive. These news stories seldom do a total cost analysis for capital, maintenance costs, consumables, labor, etc. Energy is but one small aspect, and predicting future energy cost has huge error bars. The composting princess itself likely generates greenhouse gases. Finally, consumer choice also needs to be considered. This news article reads like a press release for a product with little organic demand.
