Greening of the American Funeral

Nothing is as kind to the planet as a formaldehyde-free burial, whether it involves a shrouded body on a burial board or a body inside a biodegradable casket without any metal hardware or nails.

Join Green-Wood’s death educator and eco-friendly funeral director Amy Cunningham in a discussion about greener funeral options, as well as modern modes of accelerating the body’s return to the soil. You can become a tree, after all!
