About Eco-Burials (Green Burials)
This choice is becoming increasingly popular, from both affordability and sustainability perspectives.
Here are some key points about the prevalence and growth of green burials:
Growing Awareness: Awareness of environmental issues and sustainability has increased interest in eco-burials. Many people are looking for ways to minimize their environmental impact, even after death.
Number of Green Cemeteries: The number of green cemeteries and natural burial sites is growing. In the United States, there are now over 150 certified green burial sites, and more are being developed as demand increases.
Cultural Shifts: As more people become environmentally conscious, the demand for eco-friendly burial options has risen. This shift is driven by a desire for simpler, more natural end-of-life options that align with personal values.
Educational Efforts: Organizations such as the Green Burial Council provide information and certification for green burial practices, helping to educate the public and ensure standards are met.
Demographic Trends: Certain demographics, particularly younger generations and those involved in environmental advocacy are more likely to choose green burials.
While Green Burials are not yet the norm, they are gaining traction as a viable and meaningful alternative to conventional burial methods. As awareness continues to grow, it’s likely that green burials will become more common.
