Washington state braces for eco-friendly 'human composting'
By Richard Read, Los Angeles Times
 

SEATTLE - As Washington prepares to become the first state to legalize "human composting," not everyone is dying to turn their loved ones' bodies into garden-variety soil.

Even the lawmaker who sponsored the bill awaiting action by the governor receives emails from people around the country expressing disgust.

"I think the vision they have is that you throw Grandpa out in the backyard with food scraps," said state Sen. Jamie Pedersen, a Seattle Democrat.

Why not skip the middle-man and go straight to Soylent Green?
