Green Burial: Elizabeth Fournier (The Green Reaper)

In this episode of Life/Death/Law, Elizabeth Fournier, owner and founder of Cornerstone Funeral Services in Boring, Oregon, and the author of The Green Burial Guidebook, talks about what green burial is, what it isn’t, and how you can work with a funeral director to get the kind of burial you or your loved ones want. Learn about the surprisingly non-environmentally friendly footprint of traditional cremation and the new practices of aqua-cremation and organic reduction. You can also find out about how Nate was buried in Six Feet Under!
