Bodies to be frozen in the UK

by David Allen on Monday, October 29th, 2007

With the space in the UK ‘s grave yards running out, now is the time for the government to do something about it before it gets too late. The answer to the problem would seem to be a new process called Promession, which is the system developed where the body is lowered into liquid nitrogen until it is brittle it is then placed on a mat that vibrates, this totally disintegrates the body until only a fine powder is left.

Now this powder can be buried or whatever the family wants to do with it. This is probably one of the more eco friendly methods of disposing of corpses, even cremation has is draw backs, with filings from teeth creating mercury emissions and the amount of power used.

This alternative to burial has already been given the go ahead in Sweden and over one hundred local councils in the UK are considering the freeze dried method. Which is a good idea because it is estimated that within ten years all available cemetery space will have run out?
