New York becomes 6th US state to green light human composting law

New York has become the sixth state in the United States to legalize natural organic reduction, popularly known as human composting, as a method of burial.

Democratic Gov. Kathy Hochul signed the legislation on Saturday. Washington was the first state to legalize human composting in 2019, followed by Colorado and Oregon in 2021 and Vermont and California in 2022.

"I am committed to having my body composted and my family knows that," Howard Fischer, a 63-year-old investor living north of New York City, told The Associated Press. "Whatever my family chooses to do with the compost after it’s done is up to them."

The alternative, green method of burial aligns with Fischer's philosophical view on life: to live in an environmentally conscious way.

All commie states that do not value human life at all. "Soylent green" is right around the corner.

They are dead. Not human life.

After reading how the process works, sounds ghoulish and too much work.

Liberal state authorities never respected the dignity or sanctity of life, so its no surprise they have no respect for the dignity of death.

"Human composting"

What does that mean? It amounts to throwing away bodies so nobody will notice. No gravesite, no marker, no accountability. I said to myself, "This will be an instrument of mass murder." But I wasn't sure how.

Thank you for answering the question:

"Soylent green" is right around the corner.

Bones and teeth don’t compost. On my hunting property, I routinely find animal bones that are many years old

Just watched that episode yesterday on the twilight zone marathon. Creepy. When they translated the book the title sounded peaceful enough “to serve man” but they meant it as serving man as food to their alien race
