I'm sure many of you heard of another one of these Green Start Up Companies called Recompose. Ya know, the new "burial system" that can turn a human body to soil in 30 days. Human Composting. Well, I did earlier in the year and was sitting on the info because, well, I was waiting for more info like the ability to read the patent info. Why? Because this new method of handling the dead has been approved for use in the State of Washington and this company dances around the obvious. How does this work?!
Bone, teeth, everything. All "soil" in 30 days when composting techniques on livestock take 4 month to a year. This process for humans is clearly different hence the filing of a patent. "Natural Organic Reduction" they call it and will talk endlessly about how this is so wonderful for the planet and how beautiful it is to return to the earth. Not a word about what this "naturally occurring beneficial bacteria" actually is that can break down bone in a month.
In this video (click the picture below) I talk about the founder of this company, who funded this, and how I don't buy the carefully crafted introduction of this new method of human remains disposal to the public.
