A burial practice that nourishes the planet | Caitlin Doughty

Mortician and funeral director Caitlin Doughty explores new ways to prepare us for inevitable mortality. In this thoughtful talk, learn more about ideas for burial (like “recomposting“ and “conservation burial“) that return our bodies back to the earth in an eco-friendly, humble and self-aware way.
