English funeral parlours could soon start utilising the heat of crematoria to keep mourners warm, it was reported recently.

A council in Greater Manchester has come up with a novel idea to make funerals more environmentally friendly. Crematorium gases are usually wastefully emitted into the atmosphere, instead of heating radiators.

"We are conscious it might be a sensitive matter," a Thameside Council environmental officer said."But in this day and age we all have to look at reducing our carbon footprint.

    My first reaction was "ewwww!" but after much thought, it's not a horrible idea.  It's not like they're venting the gasses directly into the funeral parlour.  In a weird kind of way it will be like a final warm embrace that our dearly departed give us.
