Eco friendly alternative to cremations
Now being eco friendly does not mean that it finishes when you die. After all a conventional cremation uses enormous amounts of energy and can lead to some other undesirable elements being released into the atmosphere, like mercury that comes from dental fillings.
In the UK some crematoriums are limiting the amount of days that they work on, in order to cut back. So what is the alternative?
Its called Resomation and it use water instead of heat, by using a naturally occurring alkaline, the process quickly breaks the body down into a white bio ash. The body releases the amino acids, sugars and salts, until there are only some traces of bone, which is then crushed into the ash.
The estimated cost of this process is around $600.
