green funeral

"Resomation" -- a corpse-liquification method used for years by veterinarians -- could be the greenest way to "go." Coming soon to a funeral home near you!

Since death is a natural part of the cycle of life, it seems fitting that some people are seeking a natural way of celebrating the end. They are foregoing most of the hype and high expense that is typically associated with an elaborate burial ceremony and turning instead to eco-friendly funerals, which are simple funerals that are done without embalming fluids, markers and metal caskets in order to let the body decompose naturally.
