Thurston-More Designs LLC just released a line of environmentally friendly, modern memorials with a timeless aesthetic. Handcrafted bamboo memorials that incorporate LEED certified resin inlays and a built in oil lamp that creates a unique opportunity to honor a loved one.
With biodegradable caskets and shrouds, no embalming, and often a tree planted in the honor of the deceased instead of a headstone, green funerals are gaining traction as an environmentally sound option. The best part is besides being morally satisfying, they’re cheaper than traditional funerals! With less preparation and chemicals required and the less extravagant caskets, it takes far less money to have a green funeral.
