I understand that it's good for the environment or that's the intention. Still, for some reason, it grosses me out more than an old-fashioned cremation. I guess I'm going to have to get over it, right?
idk if people on kbin can see lemmy comments yet so I maybe talking to myself here BUT in the west people used to think cremation was creepy and weird too, there was a lot of backlash to it. This seems to be the case every time a new way to deal with bodies appears. Conversely there are also ways of handling the dead and corpses that used to be popular that have fell out of fashion and would be considered creepy now.
Regardless while this is better than cremation I’m more excited about human composting tech. It’s basically the same end result as a natural burial but takes up less space and is quicker than natural decomposition. By the end of the process there isn’t anything human left like dna because it’s been so well broken down so its safe to put anywhere like a garden with sentimental value.
This may be a problem on my side but just to check: Does the full body of the article consist of just these 9 words: "New body 'liquefaction' unit unveiled in Florida funeral home" or are parts of that website not loading for me?
