'Green burial' movement gains a foothold | The Columbus Dispatch

Try a Cremation, Can't get any Greener than that.....

Try Cremation. Can't get any greener than that....

Donate your body to a Medical School...Help future
physicians.....
The Green people are stupid....

If they want green, why not get cremated and throw your ashes to the wind. These people are stupid.

Bury me in the garden deep enough so the dogs don't dig me up.

Cremation isn't green. Burning the body and casket produces lots of CO2 which increases your carbon footprint after you are dead.

Donate your body to the Body Farm.

Cremation isn't green. They burn you which takes fuel and you produce lots of carbon dioxide.

Buried in a nature preserve is much better. The only thing that would be better would be to dump your body on the surface on the nature preserve and let the animals and insects take care of you,

You become the nature preserve.

We won't be saying who is stupid in this post.

Just set me out on Thursday morning with the rest of the trash and go have a beer or go back to bed. Anything more is a waste.

And so the debate rages, Joe Diffe had it right...
Well I ain't afraid of die'n,It's the though of being dead
I wanna go on being me once my eulogys been read
Don't spread my ashes out to sea, don't lay me down to rest
You can put my mind to ease if you fill my last request

Prop me up beside the jukebox if I die
Lord I wanna go to heaven but I don't wanna go tonight
Fill my boots up with sand, put a stiff drink in my hand
Prop me up beside the jukebox if I die

Just let my headstone be a neon sign
Just let in burn in memory of all of my good times
Fix me up with a manican just remember i like blondes
Ill be the life of the party even when im dead and gone

Prop me up beside the jukebox if I die
Lord I wanna go to heaven but I don't wanna go tonight
Fill my boots up with sand, put a stiff drink in my hand
Prop me up beside the jukebox if I die

Just make your next selection and while your still in line
You can pay you last respects one quarter at a time

Prop me up beside the jukebox if I die
Lord I wanna go to heaven but I don't wanna go tonight
Fill my boots up with sand put a stiff drink in my hand
Prop me up beside the jukebox if I die

Prop me up beside the jukebox if I die
Lord I wanna go to heaven but I don't wanna go tonight
Fill my boots up with sand put a stiff drink in my hand
Prop me up beside the jukebox if I die

Oh prop me up beside the jukebox if I die

Then you haven't tried composting.

This is pretty cool-more choices the better. Count me in!

How can I come back as a zombie if I decompose the green way? Pump me full of formaldahyde, stick me in a casket and put a vault over me. Then be VERY careful when you walk by my cemetery at night, I might just be prowling around with my arms stuck straight out! And hungry...

BWAHAHAHAHA!

I think that Deborah made a wonderful choice and her family must be great people to honor her wishes. My heart goes out to the family and friends.

Actually, you can get greener than that, not least because of all of the fossil fuels it takes to burn a body to creamate it.

You don't need a casket to be cremated neither do you need a vault for burial. What is left of a cremation is bone fragements. They are normaly placed in an Urn. Years back, I worked at Greenlawn Cemetary which does cremations.

duh, yes it takes energy for cremations, but not as much as it does to make a casket and vault. You know who cares about going GREEN when it comes to this, this is a person last request. I don't care if I guy wants to be put in acasket and ran down a drag strip buring 50 gallons of fuel or if his remains had to be flown 2000 miles to do it.

This paper sucks, why is this even in the news???
