Woodland burial

Wat is it?
A sustainable lifestyle even after death. Woodland burial makes it possible.The goal of a natural burial is to return the body to the earth in a manner that does not inhibit decomposition and allows the body to recycle naturally. People are buried in biodegradable materials. The box is made of wood from well managed forests, woven cane or banana leaves, or even cardboard. Chemicals for the finish, like lacquer, paint and adhesives are avoided. And of course the case is not covered with the usual synthetic fabrics, most with organic cotton. This boxes are buried in a natural environment and the graves are often no more than a boulder.

Why it is cool? 
The woodland burial is the ultimate proof of a sustainable lifestyle. Even after your death you make a contribution to a sustainable world. It is also very poetic because people unite with nature.
