I’ve been browsing antique jewelry a lot lately and wonder about this. With jewelry specifically I think about hair, coral, pearls.

Then that extends out to animal skins, bones, human relics, etc.

What makes one thing gross but the other okay?

      I have no issues with drinking recycled water. I’ve even had beer made from treated wastewater. Never again! (Because I’m gluten intolerant.)

      Water is created and destroyed by nature, non-stop since forever.

      Photosynthesis:

      6CO2 + 6H2O + light energy → C6H12O6 + 6O2
