Good deed till the end...

Some said that there were only two certainties in life - tax and death. Earlier in the New Inventors show in Australia, it featured an environmental friendly way of getting a burial.

Bio-pod

The bio-pod, a lined shroud which combined with the patented handle system, can take you from funeral service to the grave without the need for an un-environmentally friendly coffin.

The inventor and some likeminded individuals even created the Natural Earth Burial Society of Australia with the vision to see the majority of Australian's embrace a more natural, eco-sensitive approach to death, funerals and memorialisation.

Why am I interested in it? I love the show, probably my sci-fi mind at play here. And I've written a few short stories featuring ghosts.
