Traditional burial methods often involve the use of formaldehyde, which is a known carcinogen. Green burial does not use chemicals.<\/li>\n<li>Green burial is energy efficient. Cremation requires a lot of energy to heat the body to the high temperatures needed to turn it into ashes. Green burial requires little to no power.<\/li>\n<li>Some green burials do not require land use. A body buried in a traditional cemetery takes up a lot of space. This space could be used for other things, such as planting trees or gardens.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>How To Arrange For A Green Burial<\/h3>\n<p>There are a few things to consider when planning a green burial.<\/p>\n<p>Find a funeral or cemetery certified by the Green Burial Council first. In addition to choosing an eco-friendly casket or shroud, you&#8217;ll need to plan for the burial. Many companies make eco-friendly burial products out of sustainable materials such as bamboo, wool, and recycled paper. A special place in nature should be chosen and the burial site should be prepared appropriately.<\/p>\n<p>Of course, the best way to ensure your burial and final services will be paid to invest in a life insurance policy.
