Newsom Legalizes Human Composting
Democratic Governor of California Gavin Newsom on Sunday signed a bill into law that will let Californians choose to have their bodies composted after they die, beginning in 2027.
“Trees are important carbon breaks for the environment,” said Assembly Member Cristina Garcia, who authored the bill.
“I look forward to continuing my legacy to fight for clean air by using my reduced remains to plant a tree.”
