In this article we are going to explore 3 Eco-Burial options.  You will see that the doors are opening in how we can send off our loved one while also paying respect to our beautiful planet.

1.Natural burial: Natural burial involves burying the deceased without the use of any toxic embalming chemicals or non-biodegradable materials. The body is wrapped in a biodegradable shroud or placed in a biodegradable casket made from materials such as wicker, bamboo, or cardboard, and then buried in a natural setting such as a nature reserve, conservation area, or woodland cemetery. This type of burial helps preserve natural habitats and contributes to the protection of wildlife and biodiversity.

2.Water cremation: Also known as alkaline hydrolysis or aquamation, water cremation offers an eco-friendlier alternative to traditional cremation methods. It involves immersing the body in a solution of water and alkaline chemicals that breaks down the body over several hours, leaving only mineral ash. This method uses less energy and produces fewer greenhouse gases than traditional cremation, making it more environmentally sustainable.
