We have talked about eco-friendly burial here before, but this video does a really good job of showing just how wasteful our modern ways can be. It’s not like people are trying to harm the earth, this is just a case of a simple practice that isn’t sustainable when replicated on a massive scale.

Personally I want to be stuck in a hole and have a tree planted over me, no casket, no chemicals, no fuss. It would be neat if it was an apple or pear tree and people could enjoy some nice snacks when they came to visit my burial plot. According to the video 1.8 people die on this planet every second. Imagine if everyone was buried under a tree.

So what do you think? Would you rather get stuck in a big metal box, burned into ash, or planted under a tree?
