Greening Your Death and Aligning Your Values; A Willow Workshop®
Many of us strive to live mindfully and tread lightly on the planet, yet, we rarely consider our environmental impact after death. Partly, this is because we live in a culture fraught with death denial. Typically, when someone dies, a funeral provider is called to remove the person and arrange for either burial or cremation. Few are aware of the array of options within these two choices, or what alternatives are available. The good news is, new options for greening your death are emerging, and many steps can be taken to green your death no matter where you live.
In this workshop, you will:
Consider and articulate what about greening your death matters to you.
Discover the environmental impacts of various choices for after-death care.
Learn about green options that may be available in your region.
Consider the best way to align your values with your choices.
