Possible Green Burial Option

This is an example of a biodegradable urn. A biodegradable urn is an urn that is capable of decaying through the action of living organisms. After being cremated, one can choose to be placed in such an urn in order to leave behind less material. This specific urn will use the nutrients in ashes to nurture a seed into a tree. All you have to do is pick which type of tree you want left as your memorial. This idea can be credited to Martín Azúa.

            

Survey Results & Religion

For our fourth element, we have put together a poster that compiles the results of the survey we extended to the public a few weeks ago, along with the influences of different religions on an individual's personal preference to bodily disposal.

We hope to have a large version printed and hung for public viewing.

Oakwood Cemetery Video

For our second element, Carina Flores did a study on Oakwood Cemetery. The video below shows how students on the campus of SUNY-ESF felt about this type of traditional burial, and where their preferences lie on what to do with their bodies after death.
