Funniest Comment I Saw This Week

 

Admit it, you’d be disappointed in the financial industry if it didn’t find a way to profit off of global warming.

The Ultimate In Environmental Personal Sacrifice

Folks, you heard it here first.

The other day I was reading something about cemeteries being used for wind farms. Interesting. But I then thought of some projects on which my firm was working: Landfill.

Why stop at simply generating power from the wind? The decomposition of bodies underground is a serious source of methane. I think the penultimate design would be to create a cometary that has holds in the ground where the casket is lowered into; holes that look like normal cemetery plots.

**Spoiler: it gets a bit yucky here**

But, the coffin itself has a trap door and the body is dropped out of it into a holding tank. With other bodies in one big kettle, the methane is harvested and flared in a generator, probably 1 or 2 megawatts.

This idea is covered by my copyright. heh heh
