Washington on the cusp of becoming first state to legalize human composting
Washington is just a governor’s signature away from becoming the first state in the U.S. to legalize the “natural organic reduction” of human remains, colloquially known as “composting.”

On Friday, the state Senate and House of Representatives finalized their approval of bill 5001 (titled “concerning human remains”), which enshrines “organic reduction” and alkaline hydrolysis, a dissolving process sometimes called “liquid cremation,” as acceptable alternatives to traditional burial and cremation.

I had no idea this was in the works! Amazing! Cemeteries are becoming filled and I think all of us dread the idea of coffins being two and three and more deep, as has been done in parts of Europe for many years.

No wonder crematoria are so much more popular now.

Passage of the bill fulfills a longtime hope for Seattle-based Katrina Spade, and is another step in a years-long effort to realize her vision for an urban, soil-based, ecologically friendly death-care option. She is the founder and CEO of Recompose, which aspires to be the first “natural organic reduction” funeral home in the U.S.

Given my druthers, I'd rather become a soil enrichment than ashes floating about, by far! This seems a great plan for disposal of human remains in a compassionate, environmentally friendly manner.
