Eco-friendly or green burials are growing in popularity, especially throughout the US and UK.Not only do they emphasize respect for the environment by the use of biodegradable coffins made of materials like cardboard, wicker and bamboo, but they also seek to create a more personal and intimate experience for someone who is burying a lost loved one. In this Current Originals pod, reporter Drew Broadrick and I visited Rupert and Claire Callender of the Green Funeral Company in Launceston, Cornwall, where we were touched by their direct, peaceful and honest approach to death.

I really love this poem. It's by Mary Oliver, a Pulitzer Prize winning poet from Ohio.

I would like to be cremated when I die. Would this be admitting too much CO2 into the atmosphere? Is there a green incineration process maybe on natural gas with some carbon filters?
