The global animal population poses a significant burden on the planet, with it estimated that an astonishing 95,000 tones of animal carcases are currently stored in European veterinary clinics waiting to be processed. As demand for animal product consumption continues to rise, farmers and veterinarians are faced with the daunting challenge of disposing of these carcasses in an ecologically responsible and humane manner.

The Current State: Incineration vs. Decomposition

As the debate heats up, arguments are being passionately presented on behalf of both extremes. Incineration, considered by many experts as the go-to solution due to its proven ability to expedite the degradation process, takes center stage under the guise that it is essential for public safety and disease regulation. On the other hand, decomposition advocates posit that this lengthy and labor intensive process is paramount for preserving sensitive ecosystems and, most importantly, ensuring the least harm to fauna and flora co-inhabiters.

The Environmental Quandary of Incineration

Proponent’s of decomposition claim that as a result of incinerating animal remains there is an adverse environmental impact owing to the heightened emission of GHG’s —(greenhouse gasses)…specifically CO2—dioxide, CfGases, Volatile Organic Carb> and particulates, which culminate in alarming pollution levels thusly affecting climatic conditions with detrimental consequences world-wide.

Notably, scientists and environmental regulators alike have deemed the combustion product as a known air pollutant and have henceforth set various limits for sulfur dioxide, respirable particulates, and others to mitigate unwanted repercussions.

One cannot overlook studies which have quantified the adverse health effects which emanate
