Christchurch Water Crematorium
Water cremation, also known as resomation, is now officially an option in New Zealand, for those of us looking for a more environmentally friendly end-of-life choice. Water cremation is an alternative to flame cremation and burial. There is no carbon emitted in the process itself. Instead of using flame generated by fossil fuels, water cremation is gentle process using water and alkali, mimicking natural decomposition, over 4-5 hours. At the end of the process, bone and anything 'not of the body' such as implants, remain. The bone is returned to the family as fine white ash and there is up to 30% more resulting from a water cremation. With carbon dioxide emissions on our planet directly affecting climate with more, extreme weather events occuring regularly, this is one way you can choose to reduce your carbon footprint.
