Committee Hears Bill to Legalize ‘Natural Organic Reduction’ After Years of Out‑of‑State Adoption Representative Jessica LaMontagne told the committee HB 1457 would allow accelerated composting of human remains under a regulatory framework modeled on cremation law; supporters say the option is environmentally friendly and would keep families from travelling out of state, while critics raised concerns about public health, unclaimed remains and human dignity.

New Hampshire is considering a groundbreaking bill to legalize natural organic reduction, a process that transforms human remains into soil, sparking both support for its environmental benefits and concerns over ethical implications.
