W51E Conservation Burial: The Greenest Way to “Go” (Zoom; OLLI @ Chico)
Zoom | Available (Membership Required)
Let’s face it! We are all going to “go” one of these days, and conservation burial is the greenest way. Learn about the science and practice of natural burial, as well as other alternative disposition methods, like water cremation and human composting. We will discuss the conservation burial movement and its connection with land conservation and restoration.
