S2 E1: Human Composting - What Will Your Posthumous Carbon Footprint Be?

from SKRAPS: Deep Dive · host SKRAPS Studio

Join us as we talk to Professor Lynne Carpenter-Boggs about the new trends in final remains disposal - human composting (or more tactfully called Natural Organic Reduction). If you've tried to live a life of sustainability, why stop there? Why not let your final act of earthly love be 1.4 tons less carbon than cremation or burial?Sound crazy? It is. It's crazy cool. Carpenter-Boggs is a professor at Washington State University's Department of Crop and Soil Sciences. Her research is centered on sustainable and organic agriculture and is the foundation of the latest advances in NOR.
