Keeping a lid on your carbon footprint doesn’t stop with your last breath. Your choice of funeral can have a significant environmental impact. In a recent report by the US-based National Funeral Directors Association, 60.5% of those surveyed expressed their interest in greener options including resomation (water cremation) human composting and natural burials.

I debated for a while on if I should post this or not (rather morbid, I know) but I think it's an important thing to think about.

I think I’m a registered organ donor. Would prefer to donate my whole body to science and sidestep the whole funeral business.
