U.S. company to open first ever human composting facility in 2021

The video discusses a service that transforms human bodies into compost soil, highlighting a facility in Seattle capable of processing 75 bodies. The process involves removing prosthetics and pacemakers, placing the body in a vessel with organic materials, and heating it to accelerate decomposition. After 30 days, the body is converted into soil, which can be used by family and friends. This method is environmentally friendly, saving one ton of carbon emissions per person compared to traditional burial or cremation.
