As our bodies are 20% carbon should cremations be banned.
Does anyone know the "carbon footprint" result of burning a corpse relative to the number of car exhausts. Makes you think. BTW next time you burn toast consider this.Bread like everything else on the planet,almost,contains carbon. The heat of the toaster extracts water from the bread, the black you scrape off is carbon.
Next time you eat toast dont slag off the 4 x 4 drivers.
Im not sure any of us will ever know the real story, especially as we wont be here.
But i am getting confused with what the scientists are saying. Its not that long since they told us the world was heading for an ice age and the human race would die out.
It's the same reason I don't feel guilty for smoking. The tobacco took all it's carbon out of the atmosphere in the first place. As did the oats that made the bread and probably, to a large extent, so did we (apart from those of us who use 4x4's and aeroplanes.) It does seem crazy to talk about the victims wanting a carbon footprint when, as it seems to me, all of that terrorism stuff's about oil anyway.
