A Greener Goodbye: Exploring Eco-Friendly Burial Options

Join us for an enlightening public talk on green burials—a thoughtful, sustainable alternative to conventional burial practices. Discover how biodegradable caskets, and conservation burial grounds are reshaping the way we honor life while caring for the planet.

This engaging discussion will shed light on the growing movement toward eco-conscious end-of-life choices, offering practical insights into how each of us can leave a gentler footprint on the earth. Whether you’re curious, planning ahead, or simply passionate about sustainability, this event will inspire new perspectives on how our final act can be one of giving back to nature

Meet your Facilitator: Reverend Steve Andersen is an interfaith minister who has been a chaplain for 3 years at the Albany Medical Center. He is a Spiritual Director and has been trained in Thanatology and as an end-of-life doula from University of Vermont.
