Here’s a great TED talk Brad found on how we can speed up the beneficial, natural decomposition and filtration of the toxins in our bodies after we die.

Thanks, Brad. Some think greenburial is radical, but it is the chemical treatment/incineration of the dead human body that is weird. Most of the world for most of history has used natural burial.

Thank you so much for speaking about this dilema.

A sacred momento and story of a loved one will live on forever without taking up 6 square feet of earth.

I have always wondered if this option was available for burial. What a beautiful way to pass on! People are going to look back over the last 100 years in history books and wonder how it was possible for the human animal to stray so far off of nature’s path. Keep up the great work Brad!

I’ve always contemplated the ways I should ‘go’ after this life… with the future in mind. Love the acorn idea! Thanks for all you do and have done. Blessings.

Excellent idea, Brad! What about those of us who would like to be buried in this manner, but in our own backyards? Is this possible in Pima County?

I’ve never had a penchant for the anal-intrusive, so I’ll pass on the acorn insertion. Just plant me and plant a fruit tree on top so I can feed the tree and be part of the great circle.
