I really want to have this service for the comfort of my children knowing that mom is still here just living through the environmental growth of plants/trees. Such a special memorial- honoring your love one with such a great impact to the environment.
This is wonderful, I wish This organisation grow and get support worldwide, when we go home like this, home becomes a wonderful place for the living!. Cremation or burial, east to west home is the best.
Thank you for doing all the hard technical development and legal/licensing/bureaucratic work to make this beautiful "last act on earth" that we as individuals can make that much more accessible. Like many of the people commenting here, I hope that terramation becomes legal everywhere!
I’ve known for a couple years now that I want to be composted after death. I think Ive finally found the facility I want to do it. I wish this was legal in Texas. But I’ll have to be transported to Washington if it isn’t by the time I pass.
I'm interested in what would happen if someone were to put a McDonald's Hamburg together with the deceased, would the hamburger remain whole in the end?! 🤔 By the way, the idea of composting people is fantastic!!
@@KrustyKlown You misunderstood what he is saying. He said they 'reduce the bone as it is done in cremation'. That means they take the bones out and grind them, and them put them back in for the final month of composting. Nothing here is burned. He is saying it is like cremation because doesn't reduce the bones to ash, they have to be ground down.
Last I checked this method is apparently going to take some years before States approve of it in the USA. There are traditions hundreds of years old regarding the management of the deceased body of a human being. This is certainly bearing on the prospects of more legalization. Of course, the idea of using the "compost" for a park of some kind is laudable. However, it seems worth considering to be fertilizing beneficial plants such as hardwood. The UK already allows "Capsula Mundi". Mycelium coffins seem to be more sustainable and biodegradable. Thank you
"Mycelium coffins seem to be more sustainable and biodegradable." Coffins are placed inside of cement structures in cemeteries as they do not want the coffin rotting, collapsing and the ground to sink. Nothing in there will biodegrade. The Capsula Mundi is an interesting and somewhat similar idea (not something we can do in that States) however it is still about a person taking up a spot of land (effectively) permanently. Then people will want to be by other people and if the tree dies, can you cut it down and dig up up that spot to put someone else there (bones will still remain)? Here you are simply turned into compost that can feed trees or whatever ever else without trying to forever claim a spot on the earth for your remains.
@@curtisbme I have information gotten from those who have worked in a particular cemetery. Only the Wealthy tombs house only one dead body perpetually. The greater majority, even in special family tombs, put a dead body in. After a few years the first dead body has very much disintegrated. They then make room in the tomb for another dead body. The disintegrated remains are turned under a certain way to make room for another body. The impoverished get a little worse. As shown in the video the human body can be composted and merged with the soil. Just as the body of a deer would disintegrate so the body of a human being when buried would disintegrate. They would have to compensate for the body disintegrating and how that affects the soil level. Their park idea may be that they are having trouble with just using the body of the deceased as fertilizer. Only the Wealthy may have some idea to preserve a perpetual location for the body of the deceased. There have been a number of reports of bodies left at funeral homes and no one wants them, no one wants to take responsibility. Why not start using these dead bodies as fertilizer at least for something like hardwood? Thank you
@@dandavatsdasa8345 That is good if spots are reused but again, that isn't the case in the states. All folks buried in standard cemeteries (which are normal folks, not just rich ones) are in coffins in cement boxes. They take up space forever. Times when there have been locations moved, they are moved, not reused. And they are 6 feet down where things are biodegrading and serving as food like they would closer to the surface anyway. If for these 'natural' burials they are planning that after x amount of time a spot can be reused, that is good. But for the 'plant a tree on them' I could see a lot of issues as the family could treat that as 'their spot'. Still far better standard cemetery use of course, just not as ideal as composting (or just getting thrown into a wood chipper and sprayed into a forest. :-) )
@@curtisbme I have noticed some things around New Orleans, Louisiana. They bulldozed a lot of old cemetery area to build their stadium. I do not know how much this is done in other areas of the USA or other areas of the world. I knew and old man and I was told he used to work in the cemeteries. I was told that for many tombs the disintegrated bodies are turned under to make room for more dead bodies. There was an order of Catholic nuns that were looking for the skeletal remains of their founder. They said that the bones for a number of dead bodies had gotten merged together and they were trying guess which skull belonged to their founder. The wealthy do try to preserve the remains in coffins. There is a mausoleum in New Orleans where they have many spots set aside for coffins. It is uncertain how this gets managed after 20 - 50 years. These people are demonstrating that the dead bodies are all getting merged together as compost. Why not fertilize groves of hardwood which may eventually be needed. Well, whatever everyone decides. I am just mentioning and not trying to dwell on the whole thing. Thank you
I have to call you out on something cremation has been gone longer than 50 years the Vikings would build wooden platforms and burn their loved ones or send them out on a boat burning so their ashes could return to the sea. I’m sure there’s a bunch of other religions that have done the same.
By the way, I love this idea I’m thinking about doing this now I know I’ve always wanted my body to decompose and go into the roots of a tree or a plant
The concept is weird to me. But, in a seriousness, what about the bone meal within the “soil”? Isn’t this where mad cows disease comes from? Won’t this cause this in humans as well? Is sorry, but, I’m not in favor of this concept yet. You can say what you want about it. But, until it’s proven 100% safe I refuse to do this. I’ll stick with eating meat and living my life the way I want.
How is this more disgusting than draining all the blood so they can pump embalming fluids into a corpse's veins and burying them in a box, taking up land and polluting the Earth for hundreds of years as the formaldehyde leaches from their toxic, chemical filled dead bodies? Or how is it more disgusting than pumping polluting chemicals into a chamber to burn a corpse into inorganic ashes, throwing black rotting smoke into the atmosphere, so people can take the ashes of the dead home or dispose of them wherever they please? How is becoming organic soil that feeds the earth more disgusting than any of our other practices surrounding dead bodies? It's much more natural, and it continues the cycle of life, rather than making death continuous, poisonous and polluting.
This is not a bad idea in fact if we can just turn people into molch and you’d the mulch to plant a tree and the tree can be a live tombstone. And we can make a cemetery that whont hart the planet.
I hope this concept becomes more and more accepted.
fraud is a concept that nobody needs .. these clowns are just cremating partially decomposed bodies.. listen carefully.. 3:14
Me too.
Makes too much sense not to one day become the norm! Composting as this video suggests is the key to many of our global problems👍

Kids can grow tree on your soil so you are with kids and also contribute in environment and food and can donate organs.

I will be a future client 💚 Such a beautiful and loving gesture for generations to come and the Earth 💚
I honestly, been looking at thier videos all day. I wanna be composed in my end. Hope my family knows. Bless from South Africa🕸
Tell them
Me too! I’m definitely going to be pricing this and setting it up. It’s so less wasteful with remains.
just bury your body in the ground .. far cheaper
I love this! I hope Virginia approves this soon.
This makes perfect sense. Returning to mother nature.
This is a brilliant idea, hope in the future this method becomes an option for most of the countries in the world.
I love this so much ......I pray this becomes legal in Alabama 🥰🥰🥰
Me too as I am in Bama as well.
Please please ease come to New Mexico!!
Yes, PLEASE come to New Mexico and Colorado. Right now my plan is to be buried in an oak tree. I’d much rather do Terrimation!!
I’ve chosen this for myself.
Composted.
Everything I owned given to an art museum.
Done.
I’ve lived my life.
I love the whole Concept and I’m hoping that this will get approved in Florida.
i dont think its weird at all, I think its beautiful and honorable to the person and life itself.
💯
How much does it cost?
If I can't be composed when I die. I'll fucking refuse to die!
I salute your work
Do the bones compost in that second month? I'd have thought they'd take years?
Please come to Tennessee
You blew it with the 40 million evaluation.
I believe that my body should nourish the planet like the planet has nourished me. It won't do that in a sealed casket or if it is burned into ashes.
What about the microplastics and metals in human bodies? How is that sorted out or rendered safe?
Beautiful!!
I hope this will be legal in Germany before i die. 🙏
love love love this
I very much agree with the direction of this company. Where can I buy stocks?
I love the idea of this!! I’m putting this in my own death plan. I’d love to live on as a tree
At BioUrn, you become a tree. So this company can assist people to become soil, a couple could be a tree in loving ground.
This is something I would want. But the loved ones need a funeral to grieve. So IDK
That’s the cool thing about this particular company. They offer funeral service.
I’ve known for a couple years now that I want to be composted after death. I think Ive finally found the facility I want to do it. I wish this was legal in Texas. But I’ll have to be transported to Washington if it isn’t by the time I pass.
hows the smell inside of the factory?’
Probably like grass and dirt I reckon
Compost smells earthy.

As pagan, I think this is a beautiful way to return your energy to Mother Earth!
It's creepy but I don't understand why it's illegal in most states. It should be none of the governments business.
Are the bones burned for reduction or just ground up?
3:14 .. truth is, they burn what hasn't decomposed after a month .. end result, an expensive Cremation.

Ground up after the first month and put back in. www.theverge.com/c/23307867/human-composting-process-return-home
This isn’t that much more expensive than cremation.
@@KrustyKlown It's grinded and put back in the soil. For those who don't want to be misinformed.
Actually cremation has been used since time began!
Not as it's done in the modern world, no.
The world has changed, and it is very clear that we need to change too if we want to survive as a species.
sounds like "Soilent Green" Furtilizer is people

This sounds really awesome but probably expensive.
Compared to the typical funeral home prices it’s less expensive. Which is amazing.

Hope those green acres not haunted
I think this ovely lady from the video , slightely overweighted, has a lot to offer to this planet..
Should be illegal, people are not garbage, people are not dirt, fertilizer
Sick. Very very sick.
