Wow, well, here’s the ultimate in repurposing, I think:
The Bios Urn project reintroduces the human being to the natural circle of life. …
Bios is a mortuary urn made from biodegradable materials: coconut shell, compacted peat and cellulose. Inside it contains the seed of a tree.
Once the urn is planted, the seed germinates and begins to grow. The seed can be changed for a different type of seed or plant more adequate to the chosen planting place, if need be.
