Would you consider a green burial or do you think cremation is best?

I have heard of shrouds that come embededded with seeds that you can use instead of a coffin. I quite like the idea of that.

I used to be all in favour of cremation but recently have been investigating other options as I believe that it may no longer be the best in terms of environmental impact. A green burial is definitely an attractive idea I think.

I like the idea of a green burial. Though I've always had an irrational fear of being buried alive, I think it's important we consider our options early on and discuss them with our families just in case. I told my husband, I'd like to be buried and him to plant a rosebush on my grave.

And then there's the issue of being buried close to loved ones. That would be nice as well.

I like green burials, but I think I want to be cremated.

absolutely would consider a 'green burial'. Cremation is not environmental friendly, and gives nothing back to the earth.
