A lot of people want to give back to the world before they die. A lot of people want to create. A lot of people want to aspire. But what if you die before you can achieve such goals? But don't worry! There is a solution to that.

 Death puzzles, touches and disturbs us all, while presenting a realm of unanswered questions. One thing we do know for sure is that not one of us will escape death, and so you might as well know how you want to be buried. 

Burial Pods: What are they?

I'm going to get right to the point with this.  You have a egg, but its really a huge seed that is able to put a human body inside. Then once its put in the ground they put a tree on top of it. Oh you get pick what kind of tree you want.

 The body is first encapsulated into a fetal position in order to fit inside of the burial pod. The pod looks like an earthy piece of art, but really it’s a biodegradable “casket.” Once the burial pod is buried deep underground a tree seed or a young tree is placed directly above, and from one source of life sparks another. 


This part is going to get a little sad just a warning.

So imagine a mother and their child died for any reason, but yet the child can still "grow" next to the mother. The mother can still give life to the child.

i strongly suggest you look into this method burial maybe its best for you.

I've heard of this before and I think it's actually a pretty nice ending (and beginning).

Might as well give back a little after you pass away. Doesn't hurt to help the world! :)

Exactly! :-)
