Evironmentally conscious Americans are opting for what are known as "ecofunerals." The conventional US funeral is expensive and environmentally unfreindly. On the other hand,"green" funerals are cheaper than the traditional ones and appeal to the budget conscious as well. A "green" burial is one where the decedent is buried without toxic embalming, an outer burial container, concrete liner or metal vault, in a 100 per cent biodegradable container. Al Jazeera's Rob Reynolds reporting from Ferndale, Washington.

Steelmantown Cemetery, nestled in a secluded preserve surrounded by the Belleplain State Forest, is the only Green Burial Preserve in New Jersey. It is a true natural burial ground, dating back to the 1700's. Adorned with wildflowers, hushed by the forest canopy, refreshed by nearby streams, this oasis of wildlife is the perfect place to rest in peace, reunited with nature. Burial containers are displayed for educational purposes and are not from actual funerals. This video is presented in honor of all those who rest here, and especially those whom it has been our privilege to serve. For more information go to www.steelmantowncemetery.com

TUCSON, Ariz. -- The casket for Christina Taylor Green seemed too small to hold the grief and despair of the 2000 mourners who packed into a church Thursday to say goodbye to the 9-year-old girl whose life began and ended with two soul-searching moments for the country. Reminders of the innocence of the bubbly girl born Sept. 11, 2001 were everywhere: A group of little girls dressed in frilly dresses and white tights craned to see as their friend's casket rolled into the church and Christina's best friend sneaked them a wave from her place in the processional line. Outside the church, more little girls — and hundreds of other people — wearing white and waving American flags lined both sides of the street for more than a quarter-mile to show their support. Hundreds of motorcycle riders from all over stood guard and more than a dozen residents were dressed as angels. Before the service, Christina's family and closest friends gathered under the enormous American flag recovered from Ground Zero and paused for a moment of silence, holding hands and crying. White-gloved state troopers escorted family and dignitaries into the church as a choir sang hymns. "She would want to say to us today, 'Enjoy life,'" said Bishop Gerald Kicanas, who presided over the funeral. "She would want to say to us today, 'God has loved me so much. He has put his hand on me and prepared a place for me.'" "Her time to be born was Sept. 11, 2001," he said. "Her time to die was the tragic day, Jan. 8 <b>...</b>

Step into the mind of the low level camper. He's an asshole, he thinks he's awesome, and he likes to see those green corpses. Enjoy. My first attempt at a singing video with full machinimation. I made this about one year ago and haven't gotten around to expanding my limited talents. Song is Billy Idol - White Wedding. I definitely realize now, one year later, that I should have picked a song that suited my voice more. But hey, it was a fun experience slapping this together and I think it was a good first shot at machinima. Feel free to e-mail Sh4de@gamerarmy.com with questions/comments

A montage of photos taken at the home funeral and green burial of my father Leon.

I was amazed to see how many people showed up to show their support for the Green Family.

In a lot of countries a funeral can be a very expensive and environmentally wasteful event. Coffins consume wood, and limousines consume gas. But we need not go that way and more and more people are going for the 'Green Burial'. From the grave of Confucious comes a video that shows the alternatives...

Adapted conference presentation I gave at the Rhetorical Society of America's biannual conference. The presentation is an introduction to how natural burial challenges dominant cultural ideas: how it challenges what counts as "natural", how it challenges ways we think about time, and how it challenges the idea that who gets memorialized is more important than what gets memorialized. It's thick on scholarly terms but hopefully still accessible--I believe there is poetry inherent in dying well. May it serve as a means to reflect upon our culture's values as revealed in "final" legacies.
