PUSHING UP DAISIES IS REAL?

New York City begins composting human remains to "fight climate change."

It is the sixth state in America to legalize human composting.

The bill is introduced by Democratic State Assemblywoman Amy Paulin and Democratic State Senator Leroy Comrie. It states that "Natural Organic Reduction accelerates the process of biological decomposition in an above-ground container by naturally turning human remains into soil. This method will provide New Yorkers with an environmentally sustainable and cost-effective alternative to burial and cremation. Natural Organic Reduction was legalized in Washington State in 2019 and is currently undergoing legislative work in other states.
