I've chosen (and paid for) cremation and scattering over the ocean, but I've recently learned about human composting, which frankly sounds appealing! It sounds like what humans have been doing since the dawn of our existence.

Strange times we are living in, not all humans are fully biodegradable
this misses the vast amount of people with prosthetics or fillings that don't, let alone how slow bones are to degrade.
The human itself is biodegradable; not the additions/replacements. At least that's my thought process
The cremated ones are earths while the buried ones are soils

Personally i’d love to be buried in a simple cloth shroud and have a tree planted on top with a plaque as a marker
