Is there anything greener than Green Burial?

Yep. In the U.S., you can consider body donation to medical and graduate schools, tissue and organ programs, forensic anthropology research departments (aka body farms), mortuary schools, and the like. All of these programs require that arrangements be made before the time of death. Outside the U.S. you might be interested in sky burial.

"To live in this world you must be able to do three things: to love what is mortal; to hold it against your bones knowing your own life depends on it; and, when the time comes to let it go, to let it go."
