Green Burial

This trend of the 21st century is straight out of the 19th century: Green burials, in which an unembalmed corpse is placed into a biodegradable container and buried directly in the ground. Nature does the rest. Its growing popularity is driven by concern about the environmental impact of burying corpses pumped with toxic embalming fluids, and a desire to cut the massive amount of natural resources used in traditional burials. Green burial is better for the budget, too, costing less than half as much as a traditional funeral. tàa return to the simple funeral customs that used to be common,3ays Kate Kalanick, executive director of the board of the Green Burial Council. The GBC doesn keep stats on how many green burials are happening in the U.S., but Kalanick says they¥ seen their list of green burial providers grow from just one when they launched in 2005 to more than 400 this year.
