Human composting is rising in popularity as an earth-friendly life after death The first time Laura Muckenhoupt felt a glimmer of hope after the death of her 22-year-old son Miles was the drive home from the Washington state facility that had turned his body into hundreds of pounds of soil. “We’re going to grow him,” she remembered thinking. “We’re going to grow him, and we’re going to continue to be his parents and his sister and his friends.” https://www.cnn.com/2024/12/29/climate/human-composting/index.html #USA #US #climate
Three leading climate scientists have analyzed data from 10 global climate models, utilizing artificial intelligence (AI) to enhance accuracy. Their findings indicate that regional warming thresholds are likely to be reached sooner than previously estimated to surpass the critical 1.5°C warming threshold by 2040 or earlier. Additionally, several regions are expected to exceed the 3.0°C threshold by 2060—significantly earlier than previous estimates suggested
