About this listen
More families today are looking for meaningful, environmentally conscious alternatives to traditional burial and flame cremation. In this episode, The Funeral Program Site explores two growing options—water cremation (alkaline hydrolysis) and human composting (natural organic reduction)—and explains how each works, where they are legally available, and what families should consider before choosing.
We discuss the environmental impact, cost differences, religious and cultural considerations, and common questions families ask when researching these alternatives. Whether you are planning ahead or seeking information during a difficult time, this episode provides clear, respectful guidance to help you make informed decisions with confidence and peace of mind.
