Live Green, Even in Death

Recently, a good friend of mine lost his son in a car accident. His son was right about my age and we had spent some significant time together as well.

My friend chose to have his son cremated, but I have long wanted to have a simple, cheap, and green burial...when my existence in this physical body ends.

There has recently been lots of talk on various sites and blogs about having green burials. Though death is often uncomfortable to talk about for many people, a green burial can be even more comforting than traditional western burials.
