In {Canada} British Columbia ---a Victoria funeral parlor is presenting lower funeral cost by selling cardboard caskets covered in wood veneer. They are made from cardboard, that is recycled and pressed to provide strength. The caskets come in imitations of pine, oak and other fine wood.
Cardboard caskets require less time and fuel in the cremation process, which reduces emissions. and put out less chemicals.Many are choosing cremation as an alternative to burial.
The caskets cost less than their real wood counterparts and it is expected the price will be reduced as sales increase. Rest in Peace, Your Funeral Guy has sold cardboard caskets.
Cremation however may not be green.
Cremations are coming under a lot of scrutiny due to harm to the environment. Cremation fires are not the best thing for the upper atmosphere.
Cremation comes with ashes and an urn.
Cremated remains need to placed, buried or scattered.
Biodegradable caskets are used in a green funeral without a vault and leave no embalming chemicals in the ground.
The best reason for biodegradable cardboard caskets is lower cost and a healthier environment.
What do you think?
Would you go down for the last time in a cardboard casket?
Lower cost funerals provide for a better future.and more money for the living.
