A blog over at crikey.com.au states " People concerned about the environmental impact of their own death will be pleased to hear about the latest trend in burial practices: ‘Green’ cemeteries. A new cemetery, opening in Washington this week, is set to become the eleventh certified green burial ground in the USA, seattlepi.com reports. Others have opened in Australia. The Lismore City Council opened the Bushland Cemetery in July 2008, green burials are available in Canberra and another cemetary has been proposed in South Australia."
