A sustainable funeral is an eco-friendly approach to honoring a loved one’s life while minimizing environmental impact. This type of funeral often includes biodegradable caskets, natural burial sites, and the use of organic materials. It aims to reduce carbon footprints and promote the conservation of natural resources. Additionally, sustainable funerals may incorporate practices such as green embalming, which uses non-toxic substances, and the option for cremation with energy-efficient methods. Families may also choose to plant trees or create memorial gardens as lasting tributes, contributing positively to the environment and community.
