Seriously, somebody has come up with the ridiculous idea of composting human remains. It’s about as natural as can be, in theory – it doesn’t involve sophisticated containers and chemicals like alkaline hydrolisis, another ridiculous novelty.
Just because something is possible doesn’t mean we should do it. But people being people, ever imaginative but not necessarily sensible, somebody’s bound to try it, like cryogenics.
Me? I’d prefer neither. I’d like to be placed in a tree, dried out by the sun, food for the ravens and racoons. I like the idea of bones falling to the ground eventually and being scattered too.
