SOIL SCIENTIST: DEAD PEOPLE A FERTILE SOURCE OF FERTILIZER
CHRISTCHURCH, N.Z. (Wireless Flash) It may sound cold but an 85-year- old soil scientist thinks freeze-dried corpses could be a fertile source of fertilizer. Professor T.W. Walker says the only way to avoid polluting the planet is by recycling everything including the dead. He says new research suggests that when dead people are freeze-dried and crushed into a powder, the remaining people powder makes a first- class fertilizer. Thats not the professors only idea for natural fertilizer. Walker also claims cow urine is great for plants and wants someone to invent a watering can-like device that can help cows spray their urine over a wider area while grazing.
