Let's stop with the doomscrolling. We're living in an age of unprecedented wealth, with millions entering the middle class every year.
People live longer than ever before, with better nutrition, and better medicine than ever in our history.
This is also the most peaceful time in our history, with record lows in crime and wars.
The developing world is surging in wealth and in the west we have more opportunity and access to information than ever.

I guess that's more like how I'd want to go. I assume something like this is necessary for sanitary and logistical reasons, though I would like even more to just have my body dumped in the ground, buried and a tree planted on the spot.
Body with no chemicals, burried, and tree planted on the spot would be ideal for me too.
