Until recently, I wanted to be cremated—quickly, no embalming—when I die. But several recent stories on natural burial really have gotten me intrigued.
Cool. I came across that article yesterday and figured you might find it interesting. Also I recently heard a Fresh Air interview about environmentally friendly funerals.
Natural burial is what I've always wanted for myself. Wired had a good article about this topic a couple years back, but I can't readily find it in their archives.

KQED's new show Quest just did a 15 minute segment on green burial. I believe the entire show is online. You can see it at:
