Humans are being composted! Is this bad news? 🤯♻️🌱⚰️ Today’s post might remind you of "The Circle of Life" from *The Lion King*—but with a modern twist! 😂 We've previously explored composting, but what if we told you there's a way to take it a step further? Human Composting is a process where, instead of a traditional burial, your body is transformed into nutrient-rich compost to nourish the earth. While it may sound unconventional, it's a meaningful way to give back to the planet. Here’s why Human Composting could be a game-changer: 📌 Reduces Environmental Impact: It promotes natural decomposition, minimizing the carbon footprint and pollution associated with traditional burial methods. 📌 Conserves Land: Valuable land can be preserved for nature or development, rather than being used for cemeteries. 📌 Enriches the Soil: The resulting compost fosters healthier soil, supporting biodiversity and enhancing overall ecosystem health. We’d love to hear your thoughts on this innovative approach to end-of-life planning.

🌍🌲 This #WorldNatureConservationDay, we're proud to support Canopy in raising awareness about the impact of paper packaging on our climate-critical forests 🌲 🌍 Canopy’s new video campaign highlights the staggering annual deforestation of 3.1 billion trees for paper packaging and innovative solutions to address this environmental crisis. Nicole Rycroft, Founder and Executive Director, Canopy - “This World Nature Conservation Day, we aim to inspire forward-thinking companies to move away from outdated take-make-waste production and adopt planet-friendly packaging alternatives that meet their business needs and conserve our vital ecosystems.” Through the #Pack4Good initiative, Canopy collaborates with 449 brands to adopt low-impact, low-carbon alternatives to forest-derived packaging, often utilizing agricultural residues and non-edible food waste, to keep our forests standing. At Browning Environmental Communications, we believe in the power of impactful storytelling to drive environmental change.   Today, we applaud organizations committed to nature conservation. Through the power of #EnvironmentalCommunications, we can raise awareness and inspire actions to foster a world where people and nature can prosper together.    Watch Canopy's video here: https://lnkd.in/ehZJe2Qi   #SustainablePackaging #ClimateAction #Nature

🌍 This Earth Day, let's commit to taking action. Here are some ways we can all make a difference: 🔄 Waste? Not an option. Reduce, reuse, recycle. Period. 🚿 Water guzzlers? We don't do that here. Fix leaks, shorten showers, and be mindful of every drop. 🌳 Forests falling? Plant the seeds of change. Support reforestation efforts and plant a tree yourself! 🐾 Animals vanishing? Let's stand up for them. Make conscious choices about the products we buy and the impact we have. 🌱 Dead soil? Dead crops? Dead end for us. Let's promote sustainable farming practices and protect this precious resource. Remember, every action counts. Let's show the Earth we care.

🌎 When we tend to the Earth with reverence, the Earth tends to us in return. By cultivating a deep love and respect for our life-giving soils, we forge a relationship of mutual care and renewal. This is the heart of regenerative agriculture - recognizing that the health of our soil, our food, and our communities is intrinsically linked. By working in harmony with nature, we don't just take, but also give back, restoring the balance and resilience to our ecosystems. It's a transformative shift in mindset and practice. 🌱 How are you implementing regenerative practices in your local area? 👇 #RegenerativeAgriculture #Reciprocity #SoilHealth #BraidingSweetgrass #IndigenousAuthors 

🐛🍽️ Little critters are stepping up to the plate. Turning tiny insects into sustainable feed and food: they can be reared locally and on waste streams. Our researchers Somaya Naser El Deen and Arya Razaei Far explore the possibilities of this eco-friendly mini-livestock as a nutritious alternative to feed both animals and humans.   "With our insect research we contribute to a food system which has less impact on our climate and environment, and at the same time it has the potential to feed the growing human population,'' says Arya.

In the wake of recent storms, many of us are faced with the task of clearing damaged trees and plants. It's a perfect opportunity to remind ourselves of the silver lining: composting this organic matter can significantly benefit the soil of our gardens and landscapes. Composting not only aids in moisture retention and improves soil structure, but it also enhances nutrient delivery, promoting healthier growth for new plants. It's a sustainable practice that turns the aftermath of a storm into a resource for regeneration. By choosing to compost your yard debris with Green Soils Management, you're not only tidying up your space but also contributing to a greener planet. Together, we can turn the aftermath of a storm into a step towards sustainability. #GreenSoilsManagement #Composting #SustainableLiving

No matter the size of your farm, implementing sustainable and regenerative practices can have a great impact on the land you tend to, the people around you, and your own health and well-being. Everything is connected in life; so we cannot overstate the importance of starting with a solid foundation of Healthy Soil. We must ensure that the life contained within the ground beneath us can support and sustain the life that flourishes above ground as well. At Soil For Humanity, we aim to encourage and educate every human to be stewards of our environment; practice sustainable habits, support regenerative agriculture, and work together to ensure a healthy and thriving planet for generations to come.
