IF Approved, This Could Be The Future Of THE END
Jeff Edwards of Edwards Funeral Service in Columbus, Ohio is a pioneer in the use of alkaline hydrolysis as a green disposition method. He provides an in-depth tour of the "Aquamation" unit that he has used for low-cost, low-energy use dispositions. He used the unit for 12 dispositions early in 2012, then was halted by the state because alkaline hydrolysis is not listed as a valid final disposition method. Currently only burial and cremation can be used by a funeral home for listing on death certificates. As of November 1, 2012, the state of Ohio continues to ban the use of this new disposition method. He is interviewed by Gail Rubin, CT, The Doyenne of Death®, a pioneering death educator, speaker, author and coordinator of the Before I Die ABQ Festival.
