New green cemetery in Pennsylvania

The United Methodist Church in Pennsylvania has taken its forested grounds and turned them into an eco-cemetery, where people can have their cremated remains buried in biodegradable urns, reports the Allentown Morning Call. According to church leaders, this is a perfect way to preserve the forests. The new place also gets a pretty good thumbs up from Mark Harris, author of "Grave Matters," which touts all-natural burials as the best way to depart this earth.
